As you probably know, FMC exists to improve the lives of musicians. This holiday season, we wanted to highlight our efforts in New Orleans, where too many artists are still struggling years after Hurricane Katrina drove many from their homes and communities.
Since the storm, FMC and our partners have been doing our part to make things better for Big Easy musicians. Each year, we bring a group of artists from around the country to New Orleans to witness community rebuilding efforts firsthand. Over the years, we've been honored to share in this important work with such amazing artists as brass sensations Bonerama, Tom Morello (Rage Against the Machine, the Nightwatchman, Street Sweeper Social Club), Mike Mills (R.E.M.) OK Go, Erin McKeown, Patrick Hallahan (My Morning Jacket), Kimya Dawson, Hank Shocklee (Bomb Squad, Public Enemy), Alec Ounsworth (Clap Your Hands Say Yeah), Nicole Atkins, Wayne Kramer (MC5), and many more.
You can us help them keep up this important work by making a tax-free contribution to Future of Music Coalition. read more
