Noise For the Needy

I didn’t want to leave any festival out! I realize this is coming up pretty quickly, but I was re-reminded of Noise For the Needy today when I walked past Neumos and The Album Leaf on this poster caught my eye. While Noise For the Needy is no Bumbershoot or Capitol Hill Block Party there is no reason why we shouldn’t recognize it as a festival.

Here’s what you need to know: They are are a non-profit organization that supports a charity every year and hopes to raise both awareness and funds through performances by both local and mainstream acts. This year they will feature about 60 acts from June 9-13 for Teen Feed.

I used to work at a non-profit a few years back that hosted teen feeds and I cannot even begin to tell you what kind of impact it has had on the local community. There are many teenagers that aren’t as fortunate as we are and one meal can go a long way. Everyone deserves to be fed.

Bands you definitely don’t want to miss: The Album Leaf, The Maldives, Visqueen, and Tiny Vipers
