From the Hear N' Now "Phase 2" EP - Available On April 16th
Last year, during the initial lockdown stages of the COVID pandemic, Hear 'N Now - an Artist Initiative was born. The multi-artist coalition was formed in April by Pennsylvania music promoter Billy Loney of Keep it Metal Promotions in an effort to have music create awareness for the growing global crisis. The song, "No Road to Ruin," written, recorded and released to help raise relief funds for those who were initially impacted in the early part of the pandemic, was made available as a free song download and people were encouraged to donate. Monies collected went to the Center for Disaster Philanthropy's Global Recovery Fund.
Artists who participated in that first phase included Steve Grimmett from Grim Reaper, Patrick Kennison from Lita Ford, Chris Natalini of Blood Feast, Ed Mischke from Veronica “The V” Freeman, and the band Corners of Sanctuary (COS) among several others. The song was mastered by producer Bill Metoyer, formerly of Metal Blade Records. All of the artists' time and talents were donated to bring this song to life.
Keep it Metal Promotions is once again putting together a second phase project, in response to the now passed Save Our Stages Act which is part of the COVID-19 Relief Bill. The Federal Act creates aid for many music venues and booking agencies across the United States. A new song, titled "Let's Rock the Stage," is currently in production and is slated to release on April 16th.
Artists currently involved with this latest project include Steve Stine from GuitarZoom.com, Chris Natalini of Blood Feast, Stu "The Hammer" Marshall of Death Dealer, Ed Mischke from Veronica “The V” Freeman, Taryn Dorothy of Starlight, Brian Ozz of Blackened Earth and Corners of Sanctuary.
"Let's Rock the Stage" has been written by guitarist and producer Mick Michaels of Corners of Sanctuary and mixed at Magic Ears Studios in Philadelphia. The track will be once again mastered by producer Bill Metoyer.
