Yet Webern inspired a whole generation of composers who embraced his brand of serialism as a means to ensure that art music could no longer be coopted by genocidal ideologies.

I doubt serialism is 'inherently' left-wing but I can think of very few on the right who care for it, or even take it seriously for that matter.

Garth Brooks was mentioned at the top of this thread but is that really true? He came out with a pro gay song in 1992, when he was the biggest country star in the world.

It's not. He's pretty vague about it, and it's unclear to what degree, but while that's insufficient evidence alone, it's pretty clear his sympathies lean more to the left than the right.

That's Keith Urban. Brooks is married to fellow country singer Trisha Yearwood who performed at Bill Clinton's first inauguration. The two of them also performed at Al Gore's Live Earth event in 2007.

for what it's worth, gary numan:
I genuinely thought that the best option was voting for the Conservatives at the time. But I do regret talking about that because people got really fucking weird about it. At the last election, there was a Scottish newspaper that ran a big feature that had me down as Conservative, which was an absolute bloody lie. I only voted for them that one time and I was so demoralised by what happened and the negative reaction I got for saying I voted Conservative that I get involved very little in that sort of thing now.

Have we talked about Pat DiNizio?
He was a Reform Party candidate but I gather his stance was libertarian/right-ish.

I think most Country artists who lean left are pretty quiet, cagey about it, whereas right wingers like Ronnie Dunn (Brooks & Dunn) are pretty loud.

i'm not sure if that makes her a leftist though

well she is from North Yorkshire and probably has classic gammon dna.

No, I meant I doubt she considers herself right wing. If she is, then herself from Stereolab must be too.

Graham Parker; his anti abortion song is called “you can’t be too strong” -_-

When The National Review published their list of the 50 greatest conservative rock songs, this song was at #30. It's also the song Parker singled out when we asked him in 2012 which of his songs were the most commonly misinterpreted. Said Parker, "They decided it was an anti-abortion song. And of course it's a much more questioning song than that. It's a deeply emotional song that is not making any rules for anyone at all. But people do see it that way. I wrote some blogs on my Web site a few years back. One was deeply anti-religion, and the other one was a message to President Obama, which basically I was telling him to tell the Republicans to go f--k yourself. Because that's what they did to Democrats for eight years under Bush. Get with the program, Obama. Don't be wimp. He still hasn't taken my advice yet. But probably a good thing.Anyway, somebody had a CD table at a gig came up to me and said, 'So you're finished with that conservative kind of thing, are you?' Because they suddenly found out I'm a raving liberal. I'm anti-religion and I'm anti-republican. And I looked at him and said, "Well, yeah, for whatever." I just didn't know what to say really."

No, what I was surprised about was that he's the presenter in the Vincent Gallo vid posted above, which you sensibly didn't watch because Vincent Gallo.
