York, NY, September 13<sup>th</sup>, 2012</span></b><span style="font-family:"Cambria","serif"">—New York City’s dazzling and captivating musical troupe,
<b>The Citizens Band</b>, is thrilled to return to Los Angeles for their first show in five years at
<b>The Avalon</b> on <b>September 19<sup>th</sup></b> for a night of show-stopping political and socially conscious cabaret performances co-sponsored by
<b>MoveOn.org</b> and <b>Press Here Productions</b>. The troupe is also excited to announce the addition of actor/documentarian

<br>
<span style="color:#222222;background:white">MoveOn.org Political Action is a political action committee powered by 7 million progressive Americans. MoveOn fights to give real people a voice in a political process dominated by 1% and corporate interests, and
seek to elect progressive leaders to office and advance a progressive agenda. MoveOn does not accept donations over $5,000, and 99 percent of donations to MoveOn.org Political Action are smaller than $100.
</span> Press Here co- founder Linda Carbone is delighted to be working with MoveOn.org.:“We couldn’t be happier to be presenting these shows with an organization that truly understands how important it is for every American to stand-up and be counted regardless
of <span class="st">race; ethnicity, sexual orientation or gender.” <br>
<br>
MoveOn’s Voters Rising program is fighting voter suppression by utilizing improved organizing techniques to enable 1 canvasser to do the work of 5 and will turn out millions of progressive voters for Obama.<br>
