about

“Let’s build a house!”

That was what the members of STS9 unanimously and collectively decided, it seemed, without saying a word to one another last November while visiting the Lower 9th Ward in the great city of New Orleans. The band’s tour stopped through The Crescent City in the fall of 2008 just over 3 years after Hurricane Katrina left her indelible mark. What they found was a spectacular collision of failure and triumph. A catastrophic break-down of a system that often moralized perfection and protection being held up, only, by the ineradicable love and will of it’s people to look forward and attempt to make things right. During a day off the members of STS9 had arranged to help deliver food which they had collected, with the help of their generous fans, at each stop of their tour. The band were welcomed with open arms and even invited in for dinner to one of the many trailers so many called home. There they met families, friends and neighbors all sharing in one unfortunate common denominator. To say the experience was humbling is an under statement. It was life changing. It was with this visit STS9 began to manifest what we are so proud to announce today. An example of people helping people because we can, and quite simply, should. A effort that honors the people of a city so rooted in music, art and celebration and reminds us all there is still hope and determination to complete what we all know needs finishing.

PEACEBLASTER: THE NEW ORLEANS MAKE IT RIGHT REMIXES is a collection of 30 tracks, all donated by generous artists from across the globe, being released in an effort to build a home in New Orleans which we hope will serve as a permanent reminder of what the combination of art and love can accomplish. 100% of the profits from this release will go towards the Make It Right Foundation.
