For Episode 13, we took a trip to Rochester, New York to meet Giant Panda Guerilla Dub Squad in their hometown to busk on behalf of WALL\THERAPY.
I fell in love with Giant Panda’s melodic roots rock reggae music when I was first introduced to them in 2009. Since then, many people have also fallen in love, propelling their latest album to reach the #1 spot on the Billboard Reggae Charts.
The band’s drummer, Chris O’Brian suggested the partnership with WALL\THERAPY as he is a supporter and contributor to their cause. This one-of-a-kind nonprofit invites artists from around the world to paint murals across Rochester as a form of unity, education and community-wide inspiration.
What your donation means directly to the cause:
For every $15 we raise, we can provide an artist with about 3 cans of spray paint.
For every $25 we raise, the money goes for 4-5 cans of spray paint or a gallon bucket of primer.
For every $50 WALL\THERAPY can purchase paint brushes, rollers, buckets and cover other supply expenses.
Donations of $150 or more helps the team supply the artist with food and water as they paint their murals.
Donations of $500 or more helps WALL\THERAPY rent a mechanical lift for the week, and our artists don’t have to stand precariously on a ladder to paint their work.
Should you donate $1000, that money goes directly to plane tickets and any sort of car rental needed for the artists.
If you donate $5000, you are not just solidifying WALL\THERAPY this year and becoming a producer of this event, but you will be instrumental in helping us start focusing on the humanitarian endeavor and sister initiative known as IMPACT!
Thank you for your time, attention and support of this great cause. You are helping us connect communities and causes with music!
