Joe Glazer

Joe Glazer was a true voice for the working class, and his music has been a powerful soundtrack to the labor movement for decades. Known as the "Labor's Troubadour," Joe dedicated his career to crafting songs that captured the struggles, triumphs, and everyday lives of workers across America. With albums like "Bricklayin’ Union Man" and "We’ve Only Just Begun: A Century of Labor Song," he used his talent to keep the spirit of solidarity alive, blending storytelling with advocacy.

Glazer didn't shy away from tough topics, as evidenced by his deeply impactful collection "Down In A Coal Mine" and the wonderfully irreverent "My Darling Party Line: Irreverent Songs, Ballads and Airs." He also paid tribute to the past musical icons of the labor movement with "Songs of Joe Hill," ensuring their messages endured. His warm, approachable style made complex issues relatable, and through records like "Welcome to America- Joe Glazer Sings Songs of the American Immigrants," he celebrated the diverse tapestry of the American workforce. Joe Glazer wasn't just a musician; he was a vital thread in the fabric of American history, weaving tales of resilience and hope through every melody.
