## Resource

Vanessa Carlton and John McCauley from Deer Tick just won their high-profile noise lawsuit in Rhode Island, after a crane company’s relentless rumbling disrupted their peaceful home life — turning their sanctuary into a sonic nightmare. The musicians, known for their music and quiet Providence living, took legal action when the crane operation began in 2024, describing the noise as “hellish” and damaging to their creative space. After an initial court victory, the crane company appealed — claiming they followed noise laws — but the Rhode Island Supreme Court sided with the artists, upholding the ruling and restoring their right to peace and quiet. This case is a powerful reminder that even artists need silence to thrive — and sometimes, you have to fight for it.
