WWWD is where songwriting meets social conscience.

By holding WWWD music events around the community, we provide local activist songwriters an outlet for their music, and political activists the opportunity to hear great songs of social commentary.

Welcome to What Would Woody Do?

What Would Woody Do? is the question that we are trying to get legislators to ask themselves before they vote on laws. It's also the name of a political music event. If you're a political songwriter, sign up and join the discussion. If you're a political activist wondering where all the protest songs have gone, you have found them. We will have some here on this website, but you can hear even more of them at our live events. You need to come out to a WWWD event! They are a blast.

If Woody Were Alive Today Video

David Haken's song about some things that Woody Guthrie might do, were he alive and active today. This song really answers the question "What Would Woody Do?"
