Alex Estrada of Silver Snakes sat down with us for an exclusive performance of the band’s song “New Light,” and while our cameras were rolling, he let us in on one of the most important days of his life—the day he was introduced to peta2. Here’s how it went down: He was at the Take Action Tour, met our tour crew, learned some shocking facts about factory farming, went veg, and never looked back. Pretty cool story, right?!
Check out our exclusive video with Alex to learn all about his journey to veganism through music:
peta2 Street Team Coordinator + lover of vegan food, cats, animal rights, Dawson's Creek, and Harry Potter.
Hello! My name is Nina, and I am a musician-in-training, and I play 7 instruments. I am a liberal, an LGBT activist, avid reader, composer, singer, and poi spinner. I am vegan, and a strong supporter of animal rights.
Born and raised in Mexico. I love vegan food and animals!
I was born in Canada and love peta2. I table every month and meet new people:older and younger. I love music and play the recorder. I'm a 6 year spelling bee champion. Again I love peta2!
I have always lived in Los Angeles but my family and I went to Mexico for my parents wedding. So we came back to LA. I don't like LA but were here already what can I do unless I move out and find my own housing. I have always liked animals and it was til I was like about 14 when I learned about tests they do on animals and I began to explore animal cruelty because I was interested it in it. I have watched videos that just broke my heart so that's why today I'm doing all I can to not buy anything that has harmed an animal and I'm vegetarian .
I'm tall, I love sewing, fashion and the environment, also I'm vegetarian (wannabe vegan.) Obviously, I love animals! :)

Animals wont be kill for sport hung on mantles, pelted and nailed to the walls, maid into clothing. we can have medicine or make-up with out many animals having to possibly die. i wish that more people could be open minded so that if u choice to eat something that didnt die first u would have such limited options. I dream that if someone killed an animal and that animal could have live a full live if it was not for that human, they would go to jail just as if they would have kill a human.
