New MTR Music CD Already Setting Sales Records, Funding Projects

by Jen Osha

We are pleased to announce that Moving Mountains is the fastest selling CD ever on the Falling Mountain Music Label! See www.fallingmountain.com. We are already putting in our second order for 1,000 CDs!

To date, we have raised almost $4,000, which we will begin to use to fund additional road trips, where coalfield residents and activists present a multi-media show on mountaintop removal to audiences across the state and nation. Thank you to everyone who has made this possible. Keep at it, the word is getting out!

The proceeds from sales of Moving Mountains will go to nonprofit organizations helping mining communities threatened or destroyed by mountaintop removal.

We had our first CD release party on May 24 at the Unitarian Universalist Church of Silver Spring, sponsored by the House of Musical Traditions.

Musicians T. Paige Dalporto, Keith and Joan Pitzer, Cherylann Hawk, Jennifer Osha, Andrew McKnight, and Michael Delalla played two hours of mountain music and raised $475 for the fight against mountaintop removal! We hope to host at least three more mountaintop removal benefit concerts in West Virginia.

If you have any ideas about venues, or would like to help with promotions, please contact Jen Osha at jenosha@auroralights.org.
