The Harpoonist & The Axe Murderer Partner With Music Maker Relief Foundation


The Harpoonist & The Axe Murderer Partner With Music Maker Relief Foundation
 
For Immediate Release: September 21, 2012; (Stratford, Ontario) – Vancouver’s edgy blues duo The Harpoonist & The Axe Murderer have partnered with the Music Maker Relief Foundation to help impoverished and aging blues musicians put food on the table and get the medical help that they need. Through their crowd funding campaign on Indiegogo.com, The Harpoonist & The Axe Murderer are offering several perks to donors, including digital downloads of their CDs, DVD packages and more.
 
Music Maker Relief Foundation preserves and promotes the musical traditions of the American South. Since 1994 they have partnered with traditional artists over 55 years old who survive on a yearly income of less than $18,000, sustaining their day-to-day needs while building their careers. Through Music Maker, our rich heritage of folk music will not be lost with the passing of time. 
 
The Harpoonist & The Axe Murderer are not known for sticking to conventionality. Their modern take on blues and roots music has been described as “‘blues that gets you in the crotch” and their dedication to preserving and promoting the blues has helped introduce the genre to younger fans all over the country.
