Make The Load Lighter
As you know, on January 12, Haiti was struck with a humanitarian disaster that left hundreds of thousands dead or injured, and more than a million homeless. It's been a month since the earthquake, and mainstream media interest has tapered off but Haitians remain in desperate need for assistance and still need our help and compassion. New Jersey Record label Dromedary Records have, with the support of sixteen great indie bands, released a compilation album Make the Load Lighter: Indie Rock for Haiti and they are donating every penny they earn on this record to Haitian earthquake relief, directly to Vwa Ayiti (Voice of Haiti).
The compilation perfectly captures the old school indie spirit with bands pooling their resources, home-spun artwork, DIY ethics and a strong desire to make a difference.
Sixteen unbelievable indie rock bands $9.99 helping out Haiti, priceless.
