Today, All Things Go reveals the music video for the poignant collaboration between googly eyes, Joy Oladokun, and Allison Ponthier; “Jesus and John Wayne.” In the last few weeks, Maren Morris (prod Jack Antonoff) “Welcome to the End” and Kesha with Orville Peck (ft Hudson Mohawke, Tayla)’s “Tennessee” were released as well.
These songs will be found on the forthcoming benefit compilation All Things Go: 10 Years, with 100% of the proceeds going to their longtime collaborators at The Ally Coalition (TAC), a leading nonprofit dedicated to supporting LGBTQ+ youth. The compilation, featuring a diverse lineup of special original songs and collaborations from artists in the All Things Go community, will be available this fall. See the full tracklist, featuring an exciting collection of both marquee and emerging names from the festival’s history.
“Jesus and John Wayne” is a bold, soul-searching anthem about reclaiming faith from the grip of politics and exclusion - inspired by the NYT Bestselling novel by Kristin Kobes Du Mez. Written by googly eyes joined by Joy Oladokun and Allison Ponthier, it reimagines spirituality as a source of healing, belonging, and radical love, especially for those the church has pushed aside. The song has clearly struck a chord with listeners already, finding consistent virality on socials ahead of its hotly anticipated release.
Founded in 2013 by Jack Antonoff and fashion designer Rachel Antonoff, TAC is committed to bettering the lives of LGBTQ+ youth across the country. By working with artists on tours, campaigns, and events, TAC provides support for non-profit organizations around the world.
All Things Go is celebrating over a decade of festivals, originating in the Washington, D.C. area before expanding to New York in 2024. Known for its intentional focus on female and non-binary-led lineups, the festival reflects All Things Go’s ongoing commitment to cultivating diverse, inclusive spaces within the music community. This year’s ATG Festival editions at Columbia, MD’s Merriweather Post Pavilion and New York’s Forest Hills Stadium see female and LGBTQ+ artists at the forefront and headlining again, with Doechii, Lucy Dacus, Clairo, Kesha, MARINA, The Mariás, Lola Young, etc performing on September 26,27 and 28.
In 2023, All Things Go launched a partnership with The Ally Coalition (TAC) to further support LGBTQ+ youth through on-site programming and artist-driven engagement across its festival platforms.
