Upcoming at Area 506: Grand Theft Bus Live Album Recording, A Fundraiser Event!
We're thrilled to share an exciting upcoming fundraising project, initiated in partnership between Grand Theft Bus, the Saint John Community Foundation, AREA 506, and the Friars Family! On July 12th, Maritime legends, Grand Theft Bus, will be performing a LIVE (Vinyl Only) Album Recording in Support of Saint John Priority Neighbourhoods.
Tuck is honoured to be a Gold Star sponsor of this upcoming summer event! Get some tickets and head down to the Waterfront Container Village on July 12th for an evening of great music, while contributing to a great cause!
As the Area 506 team further details:
"Grand Theft Bus band members Tim and Graeme Walker represent the next generation of the incredibly talented Friars family. Known almost as well for their philanthropy as for their love of music, the 'Friars sisters' (led by Tim and Graeme's aunt, Tracy Friars) have hosted a holiday fundraising concert over the last 17 years at Saint John's Imperial Theatre. After raising over $1 million, the Let's Celebrate! event is now retired, but the Walkers see this as just the start of the next chapter and an opportunity to continue their family's legacy.
The show will be recorded live and pressed on vinyl, with 100% of all album sales going directly to the Friars Family Celebrate Fund. Managed by the Saint John Community Foundation, the Celebrate Fund offers financial support to projects in five priority neighbourhoods around Saint John, with a goal of helping to alleviate generational poverty."
