Polly Jean's Prison Protest Song
PJ Harvey has revealed a new song, her first since releasing her 'Let England Shake' album in 2011.
'Shaker Aamer' (below) is a protest song designed to raise attention to the plight of a British national imprisoned by the US in Guantanamo Bay since 2002. Despite never being charged with a crime, Aamer has spent 11 years in prison and was cleared for release in 2007 by President George W. Bush and again in 2009 by Barack Obama. MORE HERE
