Band & Musician News - February 22 Christchurch Earthquake Tribute

February 22 Christchurch Earthquake Tribute

16 February 2012 - 0 Comments

Almost one year ago on February 22, Christchurch, New Zealand was rocked by a 6.3 magnitude earthquake in which 181 people tragically lost their lives.

The rest of the country mourned alongside the devastated city, the collective national grief over nature's wrath seemingly magnified on a global scale a month later when Japan was rocked by a 9.0 magnitude earthquake in which over 18,000 people lost their lives.

To this day, both nationally and internationally, the healing and rebuilding process continues.

Music Collective "The Hypnotics" have written and recorded an original track called Be Right There in the hope that it may bring comfort and positive inspiration to all those affected.

They believe that although Christchurch's physical foundation may have given way beneath them, its people’s collective resolve to rebuild hasn't; and even though it seems that almost a year later, the aftershocks aren't letting up; they pray that this original song of theirs can be of humble inspiration to all to not let up the hope themselves.

All proceeds from the single will go directly to “The Canterbury Earthquake Children's Trust” to aid children in the area who have lost parents through the tragedy.

Available on Amplifier, Digirama, Flybuys, iTunes, Vodafone & Telecom NZ.  Buy yourself a copy today of a great song and support a great cause."
