Power to the people! That is the underlying theme to the new song, "Robin Hood, Where Are You Now?" sung by award-winning blues singer/guitarist Phil Gates. Composed by Matt Forger, Gates, and Larry John McNally, the song is a rocking blues tune that is good fun while seriously arguing for economic change in the USA.

An eight-track "Super Single EP" is available on iTunes, with multiple versions of the tune. Two music videos have been produced. The first, which contains the full vocal version to the composition, was co-directed by Zayde Naquib and The G-Man. The second version, which is more instrumentally oriented to bring forward the dueling guitars of Gates and McNally, was produced and directed by the FookMovie collective. Both versions are on the RobinHoodNow site and YouTube.

"We are all greatly concerned that the economic situation in this country is wildly out of proportion," states co-writer and co-producer Matt Forger. "Some corporate executives are receiving exorbitant compensation while laying off workers and outsourcing jobs. We need the spirit of Robin Hood to help the American worker and protect the American citizens from the robber barons of the 21st century."

The ideas in the song run in parallel with some of the points in the new Michael Moore film, "Capitalism: A Love Story," currently in release. "That is a fortuitous coincidence," Forger notes, "but we are happy to be in alignment with such a powerhouse in the entertainment industry."
