The Piedmont Raging Grannies


The Piedmont Raging Grannies

The Piedmont Raging Grannies (PRG) was established in the summer of 2023 in Greensboro, NC. Our initial engagement with the local community has expanded across the world through social media after being featured by The Rachel Maddow Show and other media outlets in the spring of 2025. Our music videos have been viewed and shared across social media platforms millions of times and are noted to be a source of inspiration, comfort, hope, and sometimes, a good laugh! We are just one of many gaggles throughout the US and Canada since the Raging Grannies International began in 1987 in British Columbia. We dress like proverbial sweet little old ladies and use melodies from familiar old songs, writing new lyrics to address the issues of the day. Our whimsical, colourful hats and aprons, decorated with flowers and political buttons, shawls, and other "granny" attire add visual humor to our Sings, which is often echoed by a bit of pointed sass in our lyrics.
