"Musical Prozac" -- The Angel Band Project
Sometimes you get lucky and get to work on something that you just feel good about.
That's the case right now. We're helping some good friends with an amazing project that's all about turning horrible grief into something lasting and uplifting. Please check out The Angel Band Project -- a very special project and a cool blog, too.
This is a great example of talented, compassionate people coming together to create something bigger than themselves, and bigger than the tragedy that first devastated -- then motivated -- them. It is a powerfully moving tribute to a brave lost friend, to be sure, but it has also grown into much more than that. In part that's because of the fantastic mix of music being created, but also because of the charitable cause it will support.
Geoff and I are proud to be doing a small part, but many others are donating their time and talent as well -- just check out this latest post about last weekend's recording session in Chicago and all of the really cool people involved.
Want more information? You can read the Angel Band Project's blog, follow them on Twitter, or become a fan of their Facebook page. It's their story, not ours. Suffice to say that if you or someone you know has been a victim of sexual violence, this project will be especially meaningful.
If you just love good music made well, then I bet you'll dig it, too.
