Unison Jam 2
at The Phoenix Concert Theatre
June 16th, 2016
"Unison Benevolent Fund is a non-profit, registered charity that provides counselling and emergency relief services to the Canadian music community."
"The Unison Benevolent Fund is an assistance program – created and administered for the music community, by the music community – designed to provide discreet relief to music industry professionals in times of crisis. There are two distinct types of support available through the fund, Financial Assistance and Counselling & Health Solutions."
This was the second year for the Unison Jam. Canadian musicians helping Canadian musicians and an opportunity for the public to experience an amazing concert and contribute to this amazing cause. Not only is the price of a ticket ridiculously low for such an awesome line-up but there's also a silent auction for fantastic music related merchandise.
Personally I have been to both the 1st and the 2nd Unison Jam and will definitely continue to attend every year. If musicians can't work, they have no income and no health care. It is particularly tough for Canadian musicians to make a decent living. I will continue to support them any way I can, even if it's just by attending the Unison Jam and spreading the word.
