Story
"WE'RE DOING IT AGAIN THIS CHRISTMAS"
Last year, we, Band in Dystopia, joined forced with 9 local singers and the South Lakes Rock & Pop Choir to produce 'Light a Candle', a charity Christmas single and music video to raise money for four important causes in the Furness area. The project was dubbed "Barrow's answer to Band Aid", and thanks to the generosity of our local community, we raised over £6,000!
This Christmas, we're promoting the song and music video once again to support the same 4 causes, Barrow Foodbank, Mind-in-Furness, Furness Homeless Support Group and St Mary's Hospice, so they can continue to offer the vital services that they do.
Our music video has been viewed 19,000 times between YouTube and Facebook which is amazing, but that means millions of people haven't seen it yet. So please share the video and spread the word. We can raise more much-needed funds this Christmas.
We are also making an attempt for the official UK singles chart. Buy song for just 99p on Amazon or iTunes between 15th - 21st December 2023 and let's get this to No.1!
