Something Wicked... by Madison Rising - Great patriotic music!

Politics 03.29.14 Meet Madison Rising, the Band Behind Sarah Palin's New Theme Song They're like Creed, with a little more Constitution. The theme song for Sarah Palin’s new television show Amazing America caught the Internet’s attention on Thursday. Palin, the former reality star on TLC, is launching her new show in April on the Sportsman Channel. Madison Rising, a self-described “constitutional pro-patriotic rock band” performing the theme song—also titled “Amazing America.”The song came about after the wife of the Madison Rising's lead singer, David Bray, connected the band with an executive at the Sportsman Channel. The executive liked what...

What do you say we just forget about the Wons for today? We deserve it. Instead, let’s look forward to tomorrow; the best holiday ever invented by the hearts and minds of men. Please join me in saluting “Madison Rising”  - a rock band representing the best of American youth -  in their tribute to the Star Spangled Banner. “Madison Rising promotes the principles of liberty, independence, smaller government and personal responsibility.” How heartening to see youngsters (former Navy!) so proud of their forebears, their flag, and their country. Their rendition will exorcise forever the memory of Lady Gaga’s sleazy,...

Congratulations to the GOP for losing the easiest election of our lifetimes. Over the past four years, Obama has been exposed as a liar, a fraud, a charlatan and a scam. We’ve seen his policies of racism, divisiveness and class warfare tear at the fabric of our society on a daily basis. We’ve seen the national debt go up by $5 trillion during his watch. We’ve seen the value of the dollar go down dramatically over that same time. We’ve seen ambassadors killed overseas while he sits around and laughs it up with daytime talk show hosts. On top of...

This video was previously posted by another FReeper back in July but I just became aware of it and wanted to share it with all of you. It's an amazing rock-n-roll rendition of the Star Spangled Banner and has some nice video imagery intermixed with band shots. Enjoy.

The band is hoping to get one million people to view its rock version of the “Star Spangled Banner” by November 6th (election day). Also, group members are encouraging fans to download the music file and to add it to their music collections and mp3 players.

One band you won’t see playing in Zuccotti Park is the grunge-like — and openly conservative — quartet Madison Rising. Their application to perform there has been rejected by Brookfield Properties, which owns the park but for months hasn’t really controlled it. The tents are gone, but dozens of Occupy Wall Streeters still swarm Zuccotti during the day. Madison Rising’s manager and organizer, Richard Mgrdechian, says the band had hoped to give Downtown a “Take Back Wall Street” concert, something “pro-American and pro-capitalist.” A chance to say “thank you to the firemen for all you’ve put up with, thank you...

Named for Founding Father James Madison, they’re a “libertarian … pro-American … pro-constitution” rock band. Where other bands sing about ex-girlfriends and drunken nights, Madison Rising sings about Occupy Wall Street, the Second Amendment and liberal media bias. Lead singer David Bray described the band as a “war drum for patriotism”: a constant and uninterrupted pro-American message. “There are a lot of country acts that are out there that’ll say they’re all about the USA, and then in the next song they’re talking about bar fights and drinking beer in a bar,” explained Bray in an interview with The Daily...
