The War Project: Music Unplugged is a new project that will be staged in San Francisco on Friday, November 21, 2014 at 20:00 (8:00pm).
The performance will bring together musicians from all over the world to explore the important position that music has served in periods of war, including the use in the propaganda machine leading up to war, the tool of those protesting the violence, and as meditation and prayer for those impacted the most.
