Hangout FM by Turntable Labs, Inc., a virtual listening community that connects users through music discovery and curation, is hosting a Fire Benefit Hang tomorrow, March 6, at 4PM Eastern / 1PM Pacific. The event will raise funds for MusiCares' disaster relief fund, providing critical financial assistance and resources to musicians, music professionals, and communities impacted by the recent Los Angeles wildfires. Donations can be made via this official MusiCares link.
The Fire Benefit Hang will feature four artists, spinning their favorite tracks, sharing exclusive music and chatting with fans on Hangout FM. The artists participating are: Lexi Cline, an emerging singer-songwriter known for her heartfelt indie-pop sound; Nana, a rapper and lyricist whose music blends storytelling with West Coast influences; Andi, a rising alternative-pop artist making waves with her distinctive vocals and intimate songwriting; and Casey Veggies, a hip-hop artist and former Odd Future member. All four artists distribute their music through Too Lost, an independent music company and Merlin partner that empowers independent artists with global distribution and licensing opportunities. Merlin, which represents leading independent labels worldwide, provides Hangout FM with access to a vast catalog alongside its partnerships with Sony Music, Warner Music Group, and Universal Music Group, totaling over 100 million licensed songs.
