Help Out Nashville Music
Greetings,
Just wanted to post a reminder that Nashville is still in great need of any help/donations that you can spare. In Nashville many livelihoods are made through the music industry one way or another. This is thousands upon thousands of people. Most of this work is freelance or contracted work that is done out of the home or mobilized to a specific location. With an estimated $1.5 billion in damage and climbing, it’s easy to consider how much of that is the loss of musical gear and facilities. The photo above is of Soundcheck Nashville. Your favorite major country artist and even lesser known rock band from Nashville likely rehearsed there. Aside from the business itself being underwater and unable to function, much musical equipment belonging to Soundcheck and others who rent there took damage. This is just one example to help explain how far-reaching the effects of the flood have been throughout the Nashville music community.
You can help the Nashville music community via MusiCares Nashville, a program through the Grammy Foundation that aids those that make their living in music. If you can, please give today to help our musical brothers and sisters in Music City.
Thanks so much,
SB
