Kansas City’s no bullshit punk rock & rollers, Red Kate, have returned after five years with Shut It Down, the debut single from the band’s upcoming third album, Exit Strategy, that is set for for release in the Fall via Kansas City record label cooperative Black Site. Shut It Down is a blistering, no holds barred call to action for the oppressed, marginalized and working class.

Written by the band’s former guitar player, Desmond Poirier, after attending a Stand Up KC march, Shut It Down reminds us that when push comes to shove, the one power the powerless still have is when they come together in solidarity is to Shut It Down.
