What's the Rage?

On April 27th several severe storms and tornadoes touched down across the southeast shattering lives and homes. The state of Alabama received the majority of the damage. The state is still in the grips of the devastating reality and the numerous casualties. We are rebuilding but with so much destruction it is a slow process.

Due to the widespread tragedy and horrendous damage statewide most of the attention is understandably going to the more densely populated areas such as Tuscaloosa and Pratt City. Yet there are so many rural communities which were also affected by this panic. Among them are the rural communities of Eoline (Bibb County) and Sawyerville (Hale County).

Rage Against the Wind is an idea formulated by a handful of local musicians and others who wanted to make a difference, but in a unique way - by bringing a youthful spirit to the fight to rebuild what was taken in a brief moment.

On June 20th the Rage Against the Wind benefit compilation album featuring several Alabama artists, many from the Bibb County area, will be released to the public. 100% of the proceeds from this album will go to storm victims in the counties of Bibb and Hale. No money will be donated to any organization, rather it will go directly from the hands of White Wash Productions and Out of the Box Entertainment (the producing entities) to those of victims.

On June 25th in Brent, Albama these artists will perform the first of a series of free live events. Donations will be recieved, and 100% of the proceeds from sales of merchandise and concessions will also go directly to the victims of these storms.

If this venture has the success we are planning, the project will begin donating money to other rural areas which were affected by these storms and are being overlooked due to the attention of major cities.

We hope you support our cause and RAGE WITH US!

FGL Rages Outside the Line

Florida Georgia Line has been described as a band where country soul meets rock n' roll. This dynamic duo, comprised of members Tyler Hubbard of Monroe, Georgia and Brian Kelley of Ormond Beach, Florida, combines electrifying, hard-driving rock with honest, expressive lyrics for a modern country sound that is evocative of country's most recent superstars Jason Aldean and Lee Brice.

They recently released an EP recorded in Nashville, entitled "Anything Like Me" which is climbing the country charts. Their shows are infused with energy and they have quickly become a respected up and coming group.

Recently, they submitted their track, "The Man I am Today," to the Rage Against the Wind benefit CD, solidifying a modern country artist on a CD which houses a variety of musical genres in hopes of raising money for storm victims in rural Bibb County.
