BiographyRock-Band. Non-Profit. ™Web Sites: http://www.thepeoplenow.com http://www.twitter.com/thepeoplenow http://www.myspace.com/thepeoplenow http://www.purevolume.com/thepeoplenow http://www.reverbnation.com/thepeoplenowBand InterestsThe People Now is a progressive/alternative, cause-rock oriented band from Seattle, Washington. This band’s blend of well-crafted, intricately constructed songs, thought-provoking lyrics and cause-orientation is what draws their distinction from bands of the same genre. They unite businesses and consumers by utilizing music to raise funds and awareness for both educational and charitable organizations.In September 2011, after wrapping up their summer campaign, The People Now entered Robert Lang Studios with producer Toby Wright (Metallica, Alice in Chains) at the helm. Released in Dec 2012, it launched momentum for their tour of Italy/Switzerland, April 2013, and shaped the foundation for their "Bands Beyond Borders" Program - an international music exchange in conjunction with the Seattle Music Initiative and the Port of Seattle.Examples of such projects produced in conjunction with their live shows include; a food and donation drive in December of 2010 for Northwest Harvest, a Seattle-based non-profit that feeds those in need in the community; hosting a weekend-long fundraiser for the American Red Cross for Japan tsunami and earthquake relief at the University District Street Fair in May of 2011; and attending various concert events and festivals throughout the summer of 2011 as liaisons to MusiCares, a non-profit organization which is part of the Grammy Foundation that provides critical assistance to musicians in need, culminating in the production of a large-scale fundraising concert event on MusiCares’ behalf in August 2011.\Music available online: iTunes, Amazon, Zune, Pandora, CD Baby, Last Fm, and others!
