In addition to Florida’s 6-week abortion ban – 6 weeks pregnant is about 2 weeks after a missed period, and before most people know they're pregnant – the Supreme Court recently heard the second case within a month that will have implications on abortion access throughout the US; a case on whether states can force doctors to turn away patients suffering emergency pregnancy complications. Continued attacks on abortion further overextend already under resourced independent clinics as they adapt, respond and challenge these bans. 


NOISE FOR NOW enables artists and entertainers to connect with and financially support grassroots organizations that work in the field of Reproductive Justice including abortion access. The organization believes that we all deserve accurate and consistent information, access to safe and dignified health care, and the ability to control our bodies and lives. 


The new compilation follows the release of NOISE FOR NOW Vol 1 – a special vinyl-only limited edition album featuring tracks from Maya Hawke, Amanda Shires and Jason Isbell, Bully, Wet Leg, My Morning Jacket, Fleet Foxes, and more. The LP was released in November 2023 and is available on clear vinyl via the NOISE FOR NOW store HERE. These songs were originally found on the 2022 digital-only benefit compilation, Good Music To Ensure Safe Abortion Access To All, which was available for only 24 hours via Bandcamp and, along with the t-shirt sales featuring the album’s Kim Gordon-created “Liberate Abortion” cover art, grossed over $230,000.
