Description
The Austin for Peace album is our first effort to raise awareness and funds for the Syrian refugees through the art and gift of music. This altruistic endeavor was born in the live music capital of the world, Austin TX, and we want you to be part of it!

Our donations allow them to allocate our resources most efficiently and where the needs are greatest. 66% of the sale price of this album will be donated to the International Rescue Committee (IRC) in order to assist in this massive humanitarian crisis.
