Play a part in giving the gift of hearing as Recording Studios celebrates their 5th
birthday with a charity event on the 25th of June 2016 at the Good LuckBar in Johannesburg, in an effort to raise funds for deaf children who have
never experienced the magic of music.
Recording Studios is a website that revolves around South African music and the many talented musicians who contribute to it. It’s a space where artists, studios, producers and engineers can have a presence and let their market know more about them.
The birthday event is in support of a charity called Hi Hopes the community outreach arm of the Centre for Deaf Studies at the University of the Witwatersrand. It provides support for families and is dedicated to helping deaf and hard-of-hearing children grow and learn in a world they cannot hear. Their focus is on early intervention and promoting the best method of communication suited to the particular child and their family.
“You
love music and we love music and that’s why we want to team up and have a gig
with a difference. We’re going to use our birthday event to raise money
to fund cochlear implants and to buy hearing aids, giving children the gift of
hearing. A cochlear implant costs R320 000,” says Colette Carr of Recording
Studios.
Performances by Shortstraw, Naming James, David Beretta
Owens (of Lithium), Hellcats and PitVirus.
Recording Studios have started the #HearYeeChallenge to get people to donate to the Crowd Funding Campaign
