Australia’s hip-hop and dance communities have beaten Michael Gudinski to the punch, organising some massive flood relief shows in Melbourne before the official announcement of Sound Relief 2.
If you’re free tonight make sure you get down to the Corner Hotel for its Hip Hop Flood Relief show. America’s Pharoahe Monch will headline the night, alongside M-Phazes, Boogie Blind of X-Ecutioners, Promoe, Briggs, and heaps more.
If that’s not enough notice for you, make sure you clear your calendar for DanceAid at the Prince Bandroom on January 19. It features a who’s who of the local dance music scene, including The Potbelleez, TV Rock, Zoe Badwi, the Nervo sisters, Kaz James, Ruby Rose, and that’s just for starters.
Money from both shows will benefit the Queensland Premier’s Disaster Relief Appeal. I think it’s amazing to see all the artists signing up for these kinds of shows with such little notice. I’ll bring you details of any other events I hear about them raising money for this all important cause.
