“Thousands of music professionals and creators are struggling during this pandemic and remain in desperate need of assistance,” said Debbie Carroll, Vice President Health and Human Services MusiCares. “The continued support from the music community during these turbulent times has been heartwarming and inspiring. The power of music unites us all and gives us hope for better days ahead.”
The MusiCares COVID-19 relief fund was created to provide support to the music community during the pandemic crisis when live music, conferences and other events have essentially shut down. Established in March, it burned through 14 million within two months. “When the pandemic tragically hit our world and began to shut down our film music community, I felt that something needed to be done to help those who were in need of support and care,” said show co-creator Peter Rotter. “MusiCares, we have found the charitable vehicle that can come alongside our hurting musical family.”
Added Richard Kraft, also a co-creator: “Music has always helped transport, uplift and inspire us through wars, economic hardships, health crises and societal upheavals. When COVID-19 hit, it threatened the lives and livelihood of much of our film and TV music community. So, we decided to create an online special that both celebrates the soundtrack of our lives and benefits, via MusiCares, the artists who create it.
