The Messenger Band- seven textile workers set to music their daily life in Cambodia

[Le Libérer]

This band (http://cambodia.ka-set.info/culture-and-society/cambodia-messenger-band-singer-textile-garment-factory-worker-rights080929.html?comment_id=142&joscclean=1), formed in 2005 by Womyn's Agenda for Change (WAC), a NGO working on the defence of women's rights, uses simple words in its songs and aims at making the voice of the silenced heard. Messenger band draws its inspiration from the many causes that WAC crusades for and concentrates on current issues such as the accumulation of debt, AIDS, prostitution, domestic violence or job insecurity. This mainly educational and active approach can easily be felt in the informative, accusatory but also imploring lyrics written by the band.
