An uptempo twelve-tone blues-with-a-bridge written in protest to the lacklustre nature of election campaigns (and also as a tribute to the great Bill Holman, who is anything but lacklustre).

Commissioned by the West Australian Youth Jazz Orchestra for the 2022 Wednesday Night Orchestra, Dr. Mace Francis, Director.
