A festival of music, comedy and social activism in Babeville, Righteous Babe’s stronghold in Buffalo. This year’s BabeFest focus will be VOTE DAMMIT, and Ani will be joined by The Daily Show co-creator/Lady Parts Justice founder Lizz Winstead and artist/advocate Chastity Brown.

In a year of political chaos and in the wake of the July political conventions, Righteous Babe Records and singer-songwriter-activist Ani DiFranco hopes the inaugural BabeFest will energize people about the issues at stake this election year, and motivate everyone to vote on November 8.

A portion of the proceeds will go to The Roots of Music, which empowers the youth of New Orleans through music education, and to Lady Parts Justice.
