Loads of musical discovery for you, and it’s all part of representing your ATX community. Step on up.
Chaka Mandla Mhambi Mpeanaji (Riders Against the Storm) curated a massive show spotlighting rising Austin musical talent in continued efforts to rally support for the DAWA Fund, a local nonprofit founded by Chaka providing grants to Austin people of color experiencing financial difficulties. And here we have the big show: Black Everythang Matters, a livestream benefit, co-presented by Heard Presents and filmed at Empire Control Room, featuring performances by 5D, Chakeeta B, Clarence James, DJ Kay Cali, February 2020 KUTX Artist of the Month Eimaral Sol, J Soulja, and the mighty Mama Duke.
All Austin. All badass. All kicking off at 7 p.m. (Central) tonight, Thursday August 7, on Heard’s YouTube channel and Facebook page. And all proceeds benefit the DAWA Fund.
