Local non-profit organization 826LA is hosting an online pledge-a-thon, entitled Chickens in Love, in which you vote for your favorite songs, written by 826LA students and covered by such notable local acts as Cold War Kids, She & Him and Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros, among others. To listen to the songs and pledge your vote, visit the Chickens in Love pledge page. You can pledge for more than one song and as often as you like. Pledges will be accepted until April 30.
There also will be a mini-music festival on March 6 at the EchoPlex. The all-ages concert will be held from 1 p.m. to 7 p.m., and the line-up will include The Submarines, Summer Darling, The Happy Hollows, The Growlers and many more. You also can pre-order the 12-track album right now on CD ($15) or vinyl ($20).
All proceeds go directly to support 826LA’s free writing and tutoring programs.
