Music Rising – Instrument Replacement
Program of MusiCares
MusiCares, in partnership with Gibson Guitar and Guitar Center Music
Education Foundation, has developed a campaign to provide replacement
instruments and accessories to musicians affected by the hurricanes that
devastated the Gulf Coast region. The campaign’s goal is to put musical
instruments back into the hands of all musicians who lost everything in
the hurricane disasters and to help them regain their livelihood. Gibson
and Guitar Center spearheaded the initial effort by collaborating on the
design, manufacture and sale of an exclusive Gibson guitar with all
proceeds going directly to the Music Rising program. The guitar will be
available through Guitar Center and a very limited quantity will be
produced. All proceeds will benefit Music Rising.
U2’s The Edge announced the unveiling of Music Rising on November 21st.
Participating partners include Conn-Selmer, the largest US distributor
of band and orchestral instruments, VH1 and MTV Networks, Ticketmaster,
SpinCo and Kennedy-Marshall.
MusiCares will be handling the application and qualification process.
