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.
Father loves to farm, be self sustainable, loves to read, he's a antiques/vintage auctioneer, art student, and looks like mr. Rogers. My mother is a Montessori teacher and is amazing with children, all about local organic foods, loves gardening, cooking etc. my sister who is nine years older than me was into indie music and introduced me to all sorts of things at a young age. This all rubbed of on me and from that base I grew into similar things. I'm an INFJ
I'm tall, a geek, nacho - obsessed, I love sewing and Cath Kidston, also I'm vegetarian (wannabe vegan.)
Well let's just say life ain't always beautiful but it's a beautiful ride. I love all my pets and would do anything for them. I have one dog, two cats, a ferret and my babygirl shaymin,(the cutest hedgehog alive) I'm into all different kinds of music. I'm a singer myself and love art.
I love animals about as much as rock, heavy metal, tea, and coffee. Hoping to make a difference and help animals through PETA!!!
I want to get into marketing but not have to rely on people which have different morals and worldviews than I do to hire me. While I'm figuring this out, I want to show everyone what I believe in and spur them into action against injustices.
I am Angela. When I am not helping animals I am listening to music, reading, or playing video games. My spirit animal is a fox and I love nature. What else is there to know? Want to know anything about me, need advice or anything message me :)

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.
