19-01-2005 - ProgAid to raise funds for Asian Tsunami

The Prog Rock community coming together to help where we can!

ProgAID was set-up in the wake of the terrible earthquake and Tsunami disaster that tragically struck on the 26th December 2004. The sheer destruction and loss of human life was of a scale that shook the world.

We considered what the Progressive Rock community could do, even in a small way, to help alleviate some of the suffering endured, and help towards the rebuilding of lives and communities.

We have therefore decided to co-ordinate the recording of a CD single to help raise as much money as possible for those that need it. The song, titled 'All Around The World', will be recorded on the 29th and 30th January 2005, and since the decision was made, we have been overwhelmed by the generosity of so many great musicians who have agreed to give their time to appear on the single. The list grows daily and currently includes:

Neal Morse
Roine Stolt - The Flower Kings
Anthony Phillips
Martin Orford - IQ
Pete Nicholls - IQ
John Jowitt - IQ
Alan Reed - Pallas
Nick Barrett - Pendragon
Clive Nolan - Arena / Pendragon

Andy Edwards - Ezra

Once recorded, the single will go on sale, which is expected to be late February 2005, and all proceeds will go to the charities that can help the victims of the Tsunami disaster.

Regular updates, including the amount of money raised, will be posted at the ProgAID web site at www.ProgAID.com, so please visit for the latest news. The full list of musicians participating on the single will also be listed within the "Who's Who" section of this site.

Não sou fã de prog. mas qualquer esforço nesse sentido é válido. Agora me pergunto, como fica uma música dessas nesse tipo de situação? Tipo uma "We Are The World" prog. Sinistro. Participantes do BBB cantarão essa música também?!? Preparem-se =P

Só pra constar.

A Dave Matthews Band continua envolvida com a tragédia do Tsunami na Ásia. Nos próximos meses, a DMB, atráves do fundo da Bama Works, ajudará a uma vila no Sri Lanka nas recuperações e reconstruções necessárias.
