More than just a concert, We're Still Here is a statement. A promise. No matter the challenges, no matter the resistance, we refuse to be silenced. Through generations of protest songs—spanning artists like Dionne Warwick, Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan, P!nk, Lady Gaga, and Chappell Roan—we honor the power of listening, of raising our voices, and of standing in solidarity with all marginalized people in Appalachia. In a time when attempts to erase queer existence persist, we answer with music. We answer with defiance. We answer with joy. Come ready to be empowered, encouraged, and inspired—because the show must go on. Doors open 45 minutes before showtime.
