Happy birthday to Utah Phillips! Free Dirt wouldn't be here without his work and inspiration ✊
HBD to storyteller, folk singer, and anarchist, Utah Phillips. Phillips spent his life amplifying the voices of workers, wanderers, and radicals. His songs weren’t just music—they were living history. Check out Utah Phillips’ work at the link in our bio.
