In the current national nightmare, we need to laugh. And we need to hope. Roy Zimmerman’s signature blend of heart and hilarity has never been more necessary. Roy brings his show RiZe Up to San Francisco Friday, January 18 at 7:30 pm for a performance at Macondray Hall at First Unitarian Universalist Church, 1187 Franklin Street.

RiZe Up is ninety minutes of Roy Zimmerman’s original songs, a funny and forceful affirmation of Peace and Social Justice. Roy has a new CD, also called RiZe Up. “Sweeney Trump” is Roy's latest video - https://www.facebook.com/39171898761/videos/2112435605738601/.

Roy’s songs have been heard on HBO and Showtime, and his videos have garnered tens of millions of views. He has recorded for Warner/Reprise Records. He's shared stages with Bill Maher, Ellen DeGeneres, Holly Near, Robin Williams, Arlo Guthrie, John Oliver, Kate Clinton and George Carlin, and tours the country constantly with his wife and co-writer Melanie Harby.
