Surfrider Foundation Victoria is throwing a benefit event at Steamers on Septemner 28th, 2006. We need a couple of bands to donate their time to play for a crowd of surfers and general beach lovers.

The event starts with a fashion show. We would like to get two bands so that you only have to donate a set or two worth of time. Proceeds from this event are going to various environmentaly concerns including lobbying for sewage treatment, education on protecting the ocean for kids and protection salmon spawning streams etc... We will be getting tons of media coverage for this event and will be sure to mention the bands in the press.

We are looking for bands with a funky sound that you can dance to. Nothing too mainstream or classic rocky. Rap, reggae, funk, rock all good.

Email me if you are interested in this great oppertunity for some publicity and fun.

Cheers,

I think my funky-jazzy-rock band, Batteryhead, is exactly what you're looking for. But I won't bother because I have no demo right now. Or I'll try to put one together... hmm sometime. I should've done that today while we were jammin.
Also I'll mention that as a student of environmental sciences I am very excited that someone is doing this benefit. And Batteryhead has been involved in benefits. One has been environmental- The Muir Creek Preservation Foundation put it on. I live right by Muir Creek =\ - Sun, 9 Jul 2006 9:16pm

Hey, I'm a one-man band. I play a mix of everything. My show is really fun, high-energy and appeals to pretty much everybody. I have no demo, but if you're interested, you can see me play in Fernwood Square on Saturdays at 8pm or Tuesdays at 530. - Mon, 17 Jul 2006 2:29pm
