Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez have been holding “Fighting Oligarchy” rallies in cities across the U.S., and, perhaps not surprisingly, they are pulling in a bit more musical firepower at an upcoming stop in Los Angeles than at the appearances scheduled for Boise or Tempe.
At a tour stop at L.A.’s Grand Park on April 12, the senators will be joined by a potent lineup of musicians that includes Neil Young, Joan Baez and Maggie Rogers.
Admission for the event is free with sign-up on Sanders’ website. Doors will open at 9 a.m. at Grand Park, with a scheduled start time of 1 p.m.
