ROUTE
66 CHALLENGE...ONE MORE TIME!!!
Cow
Bop takes to the road in support of JAZZMASTERS WORKSHOP (JMW)!
Yet another odyssey down America's most storied road. This time
Cow Bop will be playing concerts along with their trademark troubadour-style
impromptu performances on street corners, in stores, bars, restaurants,
at hot dog stands, gas stations and a variety of roadside haunts.
Why? To raise
funds and awareness for JMW, to support the launch of new programs
and encourage other communities to empower local professional musicians
to make a difference in the lives' of young people. Why not put
your money where your ears are and make a per-mile
pledge?
As
a first stake, JMW was awarded the prestigious Jerry Garcia Grant
from the Rex Foundation! The $10,000 will be used to open new programs
in Seaside & Salinas. "It is an honor to receive the award,"
says JMW Founder, guitarist Bruce Forman. "I can't think of
a better use for this support than to reach out to some of the more
economically-challenged children, those who can really benefit from
our musician-mentors. I am sure Jerry would be very pleased, and
we will continue to fulfill our promise and remain worthy of this
funding."
