Rev. Billy Talen

Reverend Billy Talen is pastor of The Church of Stop Shopping, New York musicians and singers who create different kinds of ritual trespassings in corporate space while holding six-part harmonies. Their illegal concerts have recently favored banks that finance fossil fuel industries. Upcoming shows include the Brooklyn Folk Festival, Mother's Day at Joe's Pub at the Public Theater, and the March Against Monsanto in Miami. Talen is the author of "The Earth Wants YOU" (2016), from City Lights Books.
