Musicians for Mental Health

Today, the day after Thanksgiving, musicians in Austin, Texas are giving something back to the musical community and improving mental health for their fellow musicians. Artists ranging from people I’ve never heard of to Kris Kristofferson have put together a CD which will be sold for a limited time through a local radio station, and all of the proceeds go to the SIMS Foundation, an organizaton which provides low-cost mental health care for Austin musicians and their families.
On a day when all I seem to be hearing about is people standing in line to buy stuff they don’t need, it’s nice to hear about people helping other people who are truly in need.
At the same time, it’s a shame that in this country, in the 21st century, people go without healthcare, of any kind, because of money.
Maybe we should all buy that CD.
