About this project

Weathervane Music needs to raise a little money to cover some remaining expenses for the year. The money we need to raise right away will go to:
1. Paying for 501c3 filing fees with the IRS - That's the final step to solidify our status as a non-profit organization, which will allow us to fully pursue our Mission.
2. Planning and Producing our November 12, 2009 Fundraiser at Johnny Brendas in Philadelphia, featuring all the above bands - If you are anywhere within 150 miles of this show, DON'T MISS IT! It's going to be an amazing night!
3. Preparing for 2010 Project Series (which is already looking like it's going to be AWESOME!...stay tuned.)
Weathervane is a new idea. Please see the Bio (to the RIGHT) to understand what Weathervane is, what we are doing and why! You can also read about us at our website: http://weathervanemusic.org/about.
Weathervane Music is a project of POSITIVESPACE, a registered 501c3 Non-Profit organization from Philadelphia. All donations are tax deductible to fullest extent of the law.

Weathervane Music

Straightpin Philadelphia, PA

WEATHERVANE MUSIC is a new non-profit community working with amazing independent musicians to support and advance their careers. We work with select groups of independent musicians each year, and we intend to do it every year, for many to come.

Our efforts revolve around a program we call the WEATHERVANE MUSIC PROJECT SERIES, a curated series of audio and video recordings featuring the artists, their music and artfully produced video of the actual recording sessions that went into making that music.

For each project, the artists’ vision and various details of the production process are the primary subject matter of the video productions presented on our website. We hope that over time this will become a powerful spotlight, providing great exposure for the project, the artists, studio production crew, as well as the creative video artists, and other participants in the series. Beyond all else, we hope The Project Series will enlighten the public about the hard work, the planning, creative processes and techniques that go into great works of art in music.

THE 2009 PROJECT SERIES, curated by Weathervane Founder, Philadelphia musician and producer, BRIAN MCTEAR, features single song recording projects and videos from Austin Texas' SUNSET, Philadelphia's EAST HUNDRED and BC CAMPLIGHT. The series wrapped up in late October with a project from the great Southern New Jersey band, DANIELSON. Check out what we've got so far: http://weathervanemusic.org/projects .

The 2010 Series, is currently in the works, and it is looking like it will be AWESOME! (stay tuned...)

Today, there is a profound need for all of us to ACTIVELY SUPPORT THE MUSIC WE LOVE. The Weathervane Community sees what it does as a cultural investment, and a model for how other organizations can do the same. If we don’t make this investment, careers in music will become limited to a privileged class of the independently wealthy, rather than the most sophisticated artists.
