Calendars are marked for September 9th: The Trews Acoustic Trio, Corey Hart, and Gord Sinclair are next to join Make Music Matter’s innovative and exclusive virtual series, #UnpluggedTogether!
Hosted by legendary broadcaster Alan Cross, and produced by three-time Grammy Award-winner David Bottrill, the streamed show is the latest in a run of special performances, candid interviews, and interactive Q&A sessions. #UnpluggedTogether is put on by the Ottawa-based non-profit Make Music Matter in support of Healing In Harmony — a program for trauma survivors.
September 9th will see The Trews Acoustic Trio — plus a special performance from Corey Hart, and a live Q&A with The Trews and The Tragically Hip’s Gord Sinclair. Tickets are $15, and 100% of the funds raised will support Healing in Harmony as part of Make Music Matter’s mission to use the creative process as a therapeutic tool to help empower marginalized individuals and communities.
Upcoming shows include September 23rd with Cone McCaslin (Sum 41), Ian D’Sa (Billy Talent), and Blackbird, and October 21st with Grievous Angels. #Unplugged Together premiered this past August 5th with The Standstills and Neil Sanderson (Three Days Grace).
“With this project, we’re building community and bringing together leaders in different areas of the music industry who are dedicated to making a difference,” Bottrill — who is also a Make Music Matters Board Chair — shares. “It’s also an opportunity for fans to get up close and personal, even if virtually, with the artists who support Make Music Matter’s mission.”
