Ben Union
|
A simple jam-session at Union Station on a friday EXPLODED overnight to become more than a name and more than simply music. The Union sparked what has gone from a grassroots campaign to a creative movement, with the Union gospel spreading like the fire of political revolution. With a live show that rivals IMAX and a militant following, this is a group to be reckoned with. After a very successful 2011 at venues such as The Tacoma Dome, Viper Room, and The Showbox, the group intends to continue extensive regional touring with their dynamic live show while releasing a 2 volume album in 2012. JOIN THE UNION..
