The new music video from Boston rock icons Dropkick Murphys features more than just footage from the bands rollicking sold-out arena shows.  It also delivers a timely social justice message supporting blue collar and frontline workers in Boston’s largest industry—healthcare. The new “Tomorrow’s Industry” video was created through a unique collaboration with Boston hospital workers as part of their campaign to join Local 1199 of the Service Employees International Union for a voice at work. Before the baseball games on Sept. 21, 10,000 free DVD copies of the video were given away in the Fenway, Kenmore, and Longwood Medical Area neighborhoods of Boston from 6:00 PM – 7:30 PM.  Following the massive DVD giveaway, there was a release party at McGreevey’s Irish Pub. The video was also posted online  DropkickMurphys.com and join1199SEIU.org.
