Austin, TX – San Diego rock band Sometimes Julie has been selected to appear on The Compassion Project: Songs for Animal, Human, and Earth Justice, a dynamic and socially charged compilation album set for release on September 5 by Artists & Activists Records. Their featured track, “I Won’t Go Quietly,” is an electrifying anthem of resistance and empowerment that demands justice for marginalized communities and calls out systemic abuse.
Written by Monica Sorenson, Rick Walker, and Bruce Paul Allen, the track was produced by Patricio A. Pickslay, Rick Walker, and Sorenson, and recorded at Pacific Beat Recording and Pacific Records in San Diego. With bold vocals, driving guitar, and a soul-stirring message, “I Won’t Go Quietly” is a declaration of strength — a refusal to be silenced in the face of oppression. The song speaks out against cruelty inflicted by those in power, especially toward women, children, minorities, and immigrants, echoing the broader human rights message of the album.
