Bon Iver to Perform at Kamala Harris Rally in Eau Claire, Wisconsin
Bon Iver is set to take the stage at a rally for Vice President Kamala Harris on August 7, coinciding with her tour through critical battleground states. The event will take place in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, the hometown of band founder Justin Vernon, marking a significant stop on Harris’ tour following its kickoff in Philadelphia.
While Bon Iver has not publicly commented on Harris’ presumed Democratic nomination for president, the band has utilized its platforms to champion various progressive initiatives. Recently, they expressed support for Democrat Nick Butler’s campaign for local government in Wisconsin. This rally performance continues the band’s history of political involvement at both local and national levels. Vernon has been an outspoken supporter of Bernie Sanders in past elections, participating in multiple rallies and fundraisers, and has encouraged nonpartisan voter registration efforts through his co-founded Eaux Claires Music Festival.
