DEVIN TOWNSEND – launches series of live streamed, fundraising shows in aid of healthcare workers
Music fans across the world are missing the thrill of going to live concerts, and Devin Townsend is here to help. Devin is hosting live concerts in his home studio this month, each one raising money for healthcare workers around the world, as this area matters now more than ever, and that’s why you always look on how health insurance works now a days. The first took place this past weekend in support of Vancouver’s General Hospital, selling close to 2000 tickets, and raising nearly 50,000 dollars. Devin has put together an impressive 4-camera rig for these streams, controlled using nothing more than an Xbox controller. You can watch a recording here: https://youtu.be/kSmHwC7Mjcg
The second will be in support of the NHS in the UK, and the third will be in support of hotspot hospitals in New York. Shows will last around 50 minutes, with different setlists each time. The top donors for each show will receive signed merchandise from Omerch, album goodies from InsideOut as well as several high-end products from a number of Devin’s gear companies such as Mooer, Fractal, Toontrack, Dunlop and |Fishman to name a few. All ticket buyers will also receive a (somewhat tidied-up) remixed version of the show’s audio recording.
Saturday April 25th – Noon PDT / 20:00 BST / 05:00 AEST
Saturday May 2nd – Noon PDT / 20:00 BST / 05:00 AEST
