Antigone Rising honors Santiago
2011-11-16

The all-female country/rock band Antigone Rising performed at Martrys' Nov. 9 to celebrate the life of the late local lesbian activist Christina Santiago.

According to a press release, Santiago "was a huge fan of Antigone Rising and the band wanted to honor that." Amigas Latinas, Affinity Community Services, Bright Pink and Howard Brown Health Center were involved in organizing the show.

Antigone Rising's most recent CD is 23 Red. For more info on the band, see www.antigonerising.com . Photos of the show by Kat Fitzgerald (MysticImagesPhotography.com)
