Woody Guthrie posthumously teams up with Dropkick Murphys for an anti-Tory anthem | Boing Boing:

The Murphys released their first Guthrie-penned album, This Machine Still Kills Fascists, back in September 2022, with another follow-up, Okemah Rising, due in May. That first collection of songs includes a rollicking union anthem called “All You Fonies.” But on the band’s recent European tour, the song took on a new life as an anti-Tory anthem. So they just released a new, live recording of the song, reworked as “All You Tories” — once again proving that Woody Guthrie’s songs remain painfully relevant.
