AN EVENING of music coming to Reading next month will form a protest against Russia’s illegal invasion of Ukraine.
Beans on Toast is marking the first anniversary of Putin’s actions with his latest tour, marking his new single Against The War.
The UK folk singer says it’s a timely protest song that needs little explanation.
“It’s a song about peace written in a time of war,” he says.
“It wasn’t an easy song to write, but like everyone, the horrors of the Ukraine invasion have been at the forefront of my mind for the past year.”
Beans follows in the footsteps of singers such as Neil Young, Pete Seeger, and Bob Dylan to make a stand against conflict.
His song contains the lyrics: “Peace is what I’m standing for and I’m Against the War”.
The song is available on Bandcamp as a “pay what you feel” release, all proceeds going to the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND).
A limited edition T-shirt is also available.
Beans will be at The Face bar in Reading on Friday, March 24, and tickets are on sale at: www.beansontoastmusic.com
