In stores today is the Glue Factory Records release, BECAUSE WE CARE: A Benefit For The Children's Hospital of Orange County.
In an effort to raise money for the hospital and to show appreciation to the hundreds of doctors, nurses and support staffers for their invaluable efforts, twenty of Orange County's coolest bands have teamed up with Glue Factory Records to donate their time and talent to this very special release.
From the melodic pop-punk of Rufio and Up Syndrome to the indie rock-leanings of bands such as Campground Effect and current buzz - band, Thrice, Because We Care features 20 unreleased tracks and serves as an up-to-the-minute showcase for the exceptional talent that is currently pouring out of the Orange County scene. Although some of these artists may not be household names just yet, most of them have been selling out clubs across the Southland.
Highlights of Because We Care include Yellowcard's "Rough Draft", D. O.W.'s "Roads," Gameface's cover of the Jackson Brown 70's rock gem "Doctor My Eyes", Thrice's reworking of the Beatles', "Eleanor Rigby" and Fairview's live, acoustic "Telegram."
Children's Hospital of Orange County (CHOC) is Orange County's premier resource for pediatric health care. The non-profit hospital is Orange County's only facility exclusively serving infants, children and adolescents.
CHOC, founded in 1964, offers nearly every pediatric specialty and provides a full spectrum of healthcare services ranging from prevention programs for healthy children to the most advanced medical care for those with serious illnesses.
Proceeds from Because We Care will go directly to the Children's Hospital of Orange County.
To celebrate the release of the CD, Glue Factory has set up a record release/benefit show on May 4th at Chain Reaction in Anaheim. Artists scheduled to appear include, Codename: Rocky, Longfellow, Gameface, Cheswick and very special guests. CD's will be available at the show for purchase.
In addition to being available at record stores across the country and on the Glue Factory website, popular Orange County-based clothing retailer, Tilly's, will be selling the CD's for $11.99 at their 12 stores throughout Orange County.
