Band shows Bernie Sanders support through song

Sarah Curtis has a passion for fashion. She helps run her mom's consignment shop, Main Street Exchange, in downtown Saranac Lake.

"We have fun, you know, our customers come in regularly just to say hi to us, to say hi to the animals," Curtis said.

Even for people who don't live in Saranac Lake, Curtis might look familiar. She's one of the lead vocalists in the Saranac Lake swing band Crackin' Foxy. The band has recently become popular online with their song "Mr. Sanders," a tribute to the band's favorite presidential hopeful.

"I've always been poor and so have a lot of my friends, so we all struggle with health care, and we struggle with paying for education. It would be nice to see some changes that would help regular people out," Curtis said.
