Team Up for Nonprofits presents Gigs4Good
featuring Alex Mercier and Bekker
benefiting Seattle Works
Come and enjoy some great summer tunes while supporting one of Seattle's favorite nonprofits, Seattle Works, at one of Seattle's most stylish live music venues.
Seattle Works is a group that informs, connects and inspires people in their 20s and 30s to take action in their communities. They facilitated more than 25,000 hours of volunteer service on 220 projects last year alone, and provide tools for people to become active volunteers, informed voters, savvy charitable donors and knowledgeable community leaders. Proceeds from this concert will go to support HandsOn Leadership, a training program designed to teach leadership skills and best practices in volunteer project management.
Alex Mercier is a soulful singer who once aspired to be the next Stevie Ray Vaughn or Pat Metheny. Today, his music blends jazz, blues, rock and pop for a unique sound that's all his own. The Seattle native has landed songs on several hit T.V. shows, and has a debut album scheduled for release at the end of 2010. He will be joined by opening act Bekker, an acoustic pop/rock band from Seattle with loads of talent and an undeniably infectious sound.
Team Up for Nonprofits is here to connect deserving nonprofits with passionate musicians and offer events that make giving fun and accessible for everyone. Gigs4Good will bring talented bands to the best venues in the city, giving people an exciting way to be part of a worthy cause. With Team Up, you buy the ticket, we bring the music, and nonprofits get the money!
