Buy A Double Crown CD And We’ll Send $4 To Haiti For Earthquake Relief

Double Crown Records — Fri, 15 Jan 2010 07:22:18 +0000

My wife and I were talking about the earthquake in Haiti and decided we wanted to send a donation to help the people there during what is sure to be a long recovery process. I thought that maybe instead of just sending “x” amount of dollars, I’d tie it in with the record label. So from now through the end of January, we’ll donate $4.00 for every full-length Double Crown CD purchased through our website. This includes any of the following releases:

V/A – Seasonal Favorites: Volume One Reissue + Bonus Tracks CD – DCCD09
Big Ray & The Futuras – Desolation Planet CD – DCCD11
The Footstompin’ Trio – The Foot Stompin’ Trio CD – DCCD14
Chris Con Carne – ConCarnage CD – DCCD15
The Kilaueas – Mundaka Calls CD – DCCD16

At the end of the month I’ll do a follow-up post letting you all know how much money we’ll be sending. Also, if anyone has any suggestions for where we should send the money, please post a comment.

Also, if you are shopping at CD Baby, and order one of our releases through them (a CD or a digital download) they will donate $1 per release for a two week period starting on January 25th.

If you want to send a donation, but don’t want to purchase a Double Crown disc at this time, you can donate $10 to the Red Cross by charging it to your cell phone bill – just text “HAITI” to “90999.”

Thanks,

Sean
