It is an understatement to say that I am #honored to once again host the live-stream for this year's Raise a Record Gala: Melodic Caring Project event on March 23 at The legendary Neptune Theatre Levi Ware and Stephanie Ware have been an endless source of inspiration to me in terms of making a positive difference and impact in the world. I met them in 2011 when they were streaming shows in living rooms for Seattle Secret Shows - Bringing music to those battling and lifting spirits. The young RockStar Warriors who I have met have touched me deeply and inspired my own work for our project WeRideWhy. I met Ashley Berg 5 years ago at The Triple Door when@Melodic Caring Project was streaming Brett Dennen That was a special show. Brett dedicated a song to every RockStar. that night. Little did I know at the time how deeply she would touch my life and that we would be able to share her the story of her cancer battle for WeRideWhy. Ashley was a RockStar too. She and her daughter used to watch the streams together at home. More on all of this SMI (Seattle Music Insider) and WeRideWhycoming soon! Thank you Levi and Stephanie for all you do. I love you both and I love all of the RockStars who all show us a better way to be in the world.
