12 months, 12 songs, 1 huge cause for $1.00 a month

The House That Fire Built

12 months. 12 songs. Many causes. The band Mae will be kicking 2009 off with a humanitarian campaign that will last all year. They will be funding projects with donations from fans who can send $1.00 via PayPal, and in return, they receive a link to tracks from their album.

There is strength in numbers. There is power in community. However, community is only as strong as the individuals that create it. That is why we believe this project will work; because you are here reading this right now. The power to make a difference is here in your hands. From the beginning, Mae has been about making music and using our voice to help serve as a bridge to connect people and build community. For the entirety of 2009, our desire is to be the change we want to see in the world. This is how you can help write the story. [source]

Big record labels are in more fear now than ever.
