Please go to savourstages.com and use the letter template to write to your local senator or congressional representative and urge them to support the save our stages and restart acts!!

The bill, sponsored by senators Tillis and Klobuchar, is almost through congress and would grant live music venues monetary support in the next round of Covid relief funding. We need to act now to help save our live music venues!!
