PRESS RELEASE
Sweetwater and Majic 95 Release Volume Three of Charity CD
December 04, 2008
Sweetwater, the fourth-largest music instrument and pro audio retailer in the world, according to Music Trades magazine, and Fort Wayne radio station Majic 95.1 WAJI, have combined forces to issue Volume Three of Majic Miracle Music, a compilation CD of new recordings by national musicians, which will be sold locally with all proceeds to benefit Riley Hospital for Children in Indianapolis. The CD is priced at $10 and is available, along with Volumes One and Two, at Anchor Books, Anne's Hallmark stores, Borders, and Higher Grounds Coffee Shops, as well as Sweetwater's retail store at 5501 US Highway 30 W, and online at: http://www.waji.com/ (and) http://www.sweetwater.com/feature/majic_miracle_v3/ Nationally recognized artists, including Collective Soul, Augustana, Ben Jelen, Josh Kelley, Mercy Me, Jon Peter Lewis, and Lenka, appear on the CD with new, acoustic versions of their popular hits. Most of the CD's 18 songs were recorded at Sweetwater Productions, the region's premier recording studio. The others are acoustic recordings donated by the artists. "Majic Miracle Music Volume Two was great, and raised more than $9,200, so we hope to raise even more with Volume Three," said WAJI Program Director, Barb Richards. "We are so blessed to have Sweetwater Sound right here in Fort Wayne. They have a true desire to help the kids at Riley and we thank them so much for helping us to make this great fundraising project a reality!" Majic Miracle Music is a project of Sweetwater Studio 95, a partnership launched in 2006 by Sweetwater Sound and Majic 95.1 WAJI for the recording of live, acoustic versions of songs by bands and artists visiting Fort Wayne. These recordings, along with extended interviews, are broadcast on Majic 95. "We're delighted to be a partner in supporting a wonderful organization like Riley Hospital for Children, and to be able to contribute by doing what we do best," said Sweetwater President and Founder, Chuck Surack. "We hope that everyone will show their support by purchasing the Majic Miracle Music CD for themselves, and as a gift for friends and family."
