Boston-Cambridge Musicians Relief Fund

The Boston-Cambridge Area Coronavirus Musicians Relief Fund is an emergency assistance fund that provides a resource to help local full time musicians who receive their sole income from performing music. Money will be distributed to those in need at the first of each month. The amount will be determined by how much is raised during that month. We are currently helping 20 full time musicians and their families.

The fund will remain open until this pandemic is over.

Those of us close to the music community know how the financial pressures of those local musicians who through their hard work, dedication and talents, bring so much joy and excitement to our lives.

The widespread cancellation of bars and restaurants has had a disproportionate impact on our music community - especially those who perform full time to pay their bills. Creatives are people whose very existence relies on what they create and people being able to access their work.

So if you love Boston music, and you have the resources to, please consider pitching in to The Boston Area Corona Virus Musicians Relief Fund. We will ensure the money goes directly to musicians in the Boston and Cambridge area who have had their gigs canceled.

We can get through this together.
