Dear New Orleans

To mark the five-year anniversary of Hurricane Katrina  — and in response to the Gulf Oil Disaster also deeply affecting the region — Air Traffic Control (a nonprofit resource for activist and philanthropic musicians) has produced Dear New Orleans, a digital music benefit compilation for the people of the Gulf.

Dear New Orleans will be available for download on Tuesday, August 24th at http://www.dearneworleansmusic.org, iTunes, Amazon.com, Rhapsody and eMusic.com.

Dear New Orleans is the product of lasting friendships forged between musicians from all walks of life and New Orleans artists, tradition bearers, organizers and a cast of “only in New Orleans” characters during artist activism retreats co-produced by Air Traffic Control. The compilation features 31 New Orleans-inspired tracks ranging from original compositions written by musicians about their experiences in the area to covers of popular New Orleans songs to one-of-a-kind collaborations between retreat alumni and celebrated New Orleans musicians.

Bonerama is honored to be featured on the following tracks on Dear New Orleans:

25. Bonerama – “Mr. Go”
26. Thao Nguyen + Bonerama – “Body”
27. Erin McKeown + Bonerama – “Blackbirds”
28. Nicole Atkins + Bonerama – “When The Levee Breaks”
29. Mike Mills + Bonerama – “Ohio” (with Wayne Kramer + Dave Herlihy)
30. Wayne Kramer + Bonerama – “Kick Out The Jams” (with Mike Mills, Erin McKeown, Nicole Atkins + Martin Perna)

Proceeds from Dear New Orleans will be granted to New Orleans based nonprofits working to support and sustain the region’s unique musical and cultural traditions and to protect and restore vital environment and community resources for future generations. Such beneficiaries include Sweet Home New Orleans and Gulf Restoration Network.

Bonerama is honored to lend our voice to Dear New Orleans. We encourage each of you to check out this amazing compilation and do what you can to help make a difference for the Gulf Coast.
