Music for the Mountains- CD Release Party!

In Northern Kentucky on February 12^th, thanks to the work of over 20 different artists, a benefit concert will take place for Kentuckians for the Commonwealth and our ally organization Ohio Citizen Action at the historic Southgate House in Newport, Kentucky. Thanks to the work of Mark Utley, of Magnolia Mountain, this project is being entirely funded by grassroots donations at the website kickstarter! (Also, thank you to the members of Kentuckians for the Commonwealth and Ohio Citizens Action who have donated to the event!)

This event, which will also feature the release of a cd featuring 21 tracks never before recorded or performed by the artists, will raise awareness about the destructive practice of mountain top removal, and will serve as a great way to raise awareness right before I Love Mountains Day 2011! Doors will open at 7, music begins at 8 pm.  The full track listing and performance schedule can be found here, and the Northern Kentucky chapter hopes you can join us in Newport for a good time and a great cause!

Also, if you would like to donate to help provide extra funds for the event, you have until the end of today (December 23rd) to do so! If you cannot give today, we hope you're with us on February 12th!
