Event
Haiti Now - Benefit Concert for Haiti Earthquake Relief Featuring Tone 7
Join the Skyline College community in a night of music and dance as they raise funds to support the Haiti Emergency Relief Fund.
Haiti has been hit by the first large earthquake in 240 years. Over 200,000 may have died and three million have been left homeless.
Haiti's grassroots movement including labor unions, women's groups, educators and human rights activists, support committees for political prisoners, and agricultural cooperatives are funneling needed aid to those most hit by the earthquake. They are doing what they can with the most limited of funds to make a difference. Please take this chance to lend them your support.
Since its inception in March 2004, the Haiti Emergency Relief Fund has given concrete aid to Haiti's democratic movement as they attempted to survive the brutal coup and to rebuild shattered development projects. We urge you to contribute generously, not only for this immediate crisis, but in order to support the long-run development of human rights, sustainable agriculture and economic justice in Haiti.
All proceeds from the event will go to the Haiti Emergency Relief Fund will be forwarded to our partners on the ground to help them rebuild what has been destroyed.
The Haiti Now Committee of Skyline College is proud to present Tone 7, First Born and For the Love of Art in concert. All artists have donated their time and talents to this very worthy cause.
Tone 7
Neo-soul group Tone 7 has conjured their debut album Tonality, infusing a line-up of seasoned musicians, resulting in an ultimate mix of musical styles from what music critics are calling "musicians" musicians.
With album highlights including "Maybe I", "Tell Me",and the thoughtful track "Ballot Or The Gun," Tone 7 hits the perfect note. A heartfelt album, with the music to back it up, Tonality will have Tone 7's fans listening to its songs, over and over.
Smooth, radio-ready soul with a jazzy inflection predominates on this impressive collaboration of seasoned performers. With a guitarist who's opened for Bob Marley, and a former child star on vocals, Tone 7 is stocked with old pros, and it shows. Lyrics reflect plenty of life experience, instrumentation is spot on; this band sounds like it's been around forever. (East Bay Express)
