Preservation Hall

New Orleans has always been a unique source of music in America, producing widely influential jazz, R&B, Funk and Hip Hop artists. In addition to the overwhelming personal loss of homes and belongings, New Orleans musicians now lack the economic foundation to pursue their art. The funds raised are given to musicians for immediate needs.

MusiCares Foundation

As our nation struggles to respond to the devastation and displacement wrought by Hurricane Katrina, MusiCares' assistance is even more critical in ensuring that music people whose lives and livelihoods have been destroyed can begin to rebuild. To that end, MusiCares and The Recording Academy have established the MusiCares Hurricane Relief Fund, a $1 Million dollar commitment of charitable funds to be distributed to musicians and other music industry people directly affected by this disaster.
