Bruce "Utah" Duncan Phillips (May 15, 1935 – May 23, 2008) was a labor organizer, folk singer, storyteller, poet and the "Golden Voice of the Great Southwest". He described the struggles of labor unions and the power of direct action, self-identifying as an anarchist. He often promoted the Industrial Workers of the World in his music, actions, and words.

His nickname comes from when he was in the army. No one had ever met anyone else from Utah so they called him Utah.

Utah Phillips - We Have Fed You All For a Thousand Years (1983) [download]

WE HAVE FED YOU ALL A THOUSAND YEARS
(released by Rounder Records)
These are songs and stories of the Industrial Workers of the World (Wobblies), a union to which I have belonged for over forty years. Recorded live in front of a group of striking Telecommunications Worker s in British Columbia, this is what I wanted to sing and say about our working class culture and why we should teach, study, and cherish it all the time, using it to build class solidarity and a better future for all workers. By the way, these workers I was singing for really joined in, and they all knew what we were singing about too!
"Anarchy in song! Utah Phillips keeps the Wobbly flame alive.
