Description

I am an attorney at the law firm of Swanson, Martin & Bell, LLP here in Chicago. Each year our firm puts on an event called “Sound of Summer” dedicated to raising money for charitable causes through a celebration of music hosted in partnership with the House of Blues Chicago. This year’s charitable recipient is “Musically Fed” – a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to mobilizing the music industry in the fight against hunger. Musically Fed works with artists, promoters, management and venues nationwide to donate unused backstage meals to community organizations that feed the homeless, hungry and food insecure. Musically Fed identifies the opportunities, procures the resources, and coordinates all aspects of food handling, transport, and distribution. Their daily goal is to make it easy for promoters and performers to leave each city they visit with a lasting positive impact.

 

This year our Sound of Summer event will be held on Thursday, June 13, 2024, featuring performances by up and coming artists Kid Quill, Capitol Soiree, Nico Segal, and OSTON. Each year we have sold out the House of Blues in Chicago. Attendees include attorneys from our firm, clients from a broad-range of companies in the Chicagoland area, friends and family, as well as all Chicago residents and concert goers as the event is open to the public. Our four artists will have a variety of performances targeted towards all types of demographics and ages.

 

We are currently looking for sponsors for our event, as well items to raffle off at the event. 100% of the proceeds will go to Musically Fed. If you would be interested in sponsoring out event or donating any complimentary items or experiences for our raffle, please let me know.
