Last week, The Recording Academy® and MusiCares® announced that they are temporarily suspending new applications for their COVID-19 Relief Fund due to insufficient funding.

We’ve partnered with our friends at The Bluegrass Situation to set up a designated fund to benefit MusiCares as well as Direct Relief, which provides medical resources to those helping on the frontline.
