Album Notes

19 great independent artists band together to help Hurricane Katrina victims. This project, sponsored jointly by Disc Makers, CD Baby, Taxi, Just Plain Folks, and Sonicbids, seeks to raise $100,000 for the Red Cross Disaster Relief fund. 100% of all proceeds go toward disaster relief. Thanks to the artists and companies involved - all of whom have donated their talent, recordings, materials, services, and promotional services at no charge - every dollar raised through the sale of this disc will be donated to the American Red Cross. Not just the profits, the full price that you paid goes to support those affected.

The 19 artists on this disc represent thousands more who wanted to participate, many of whom are contributing in other ways. Such is the generous spirit of independent music. This CD is dedicated to the people of Alabama, Mississippi, the Florida panhandle, and Louisiana affected so greatly by this disaster.

On behalf of all independent artists, thank you for buying this CD.
