Oliver Anthony Of “Rich Men North Of Richmond” Releases New Song About The Election

Oliver Anthony recently debuted his new song, “It’s About Time,” a poignant, stripped-back acoustic piece that highlights his concerns about societal challenges in America.

The song was recorded and released on November 4, 2024, just before Election Day, emphasizing its relevance to the current state of the nation. Performed on his phone in a raw, unpolished style, the song aligns with Anthony’s straightforward approach to music and activism.

The song touches on themes of disillusionment and the pressing need for change. Anthony’s lyrics express frustration with inequality and a broken system, resonating deeply with his audience.

In accompanying commentary, he shared sobering statistics about food insecurity in Virginia, noting that 11% of the state’s population struggles with hunger, particularly affecting children. His aim is to foster direct connections between communities and local farmers to reduce reliance on large corporations, which he feels exacerbate these issues​.

This release follows Anthony’s announcement of his intention to step back from traditional music industry practices in favor of a grassroots approach through his “Real Revival Project.”

This initiative, beginning with a music festival, aims to promote cultural and societal transformation.

The song and Anthony’s ongoing projects underscore his commitment to using his platform for social advocacy, reinforcing the message that music can inspire action and awareness in the face of adversity.

Fans praised the song’s authenticity, and its timely release adds to Anthony’s reputation for tackling hard-hitting topics through his art.
