About this project

Music is a powerful tool that can inspire, evoke emotions and unify people to create change. 

On August 12th at Fury's Publick House in Dover New Hampshire we are using this idea to raise money for the American Brain Tumor Association (ABTA). We are hosting a show featuring some of the best underground hip hop artists in New England. Fury's has been gracious enough to allow us to keep 100% of admission cost for the sake of donation, but we feel as if we can do more.

We are rounding up an album's worth of previously unreleased songs from the artists performing (plus some of our local favorites) and would like to press them to disc to be sold at the event. In addition to this we would also like to have t-shirts made to commemorate the show. 

Here is where you come in. We are asking you to help us fund the production on the album and the t-shirts. With your support, they will be sold at the event with 100% of profits also going to the ABTA.
