History
As of August 2012, 180 artists were part of the group, which opposes natural gas drilling in the Marcellus shale.
In March 2013, the Independent Oil & Gas Association of New York filed a complaint with the New York Lobbying Board claiming the group had violated lobbying regulations, following an Associated Press news story suggesting that they should formally register as a lobbying group and had not done so. As of late 2014, hydraulic fracking is prohibited in New York state.
