Recording Old Songs to fight Cancer

We've recorded around 15 songs for the project so far, with another session for Monday. We're building a catalog of new recordings of old songs to raise money for cancer charities. 

Artist's Choice
Each Artist is choosing which Cancer related charity their track is supporting. Most Artists have also filmed a brief PSA for the YouTube campaign. The video is shot in HD and could end up in a Special Edition if there was interest in that.

The project is essentially a post CD Web site where you can listen to these songs streaming for free. A song download is our gift for anyone who would like to donate $1.99 to these cancer charities. An $18 "Chai" donation results in your choice of any 12 tracks, with the proceeds being split evenly. The $60 and above donation includes all the tracks in the catalog.

We envision a "tally board" like in a telethon, to show your pledge in real time hopefully.
