Sound Relief DVD To Be Released October 9

Saturday 7 February 2009 will forever be known as Black Saturday.

On this day the worst bushfires in the history of Australia caused devastation across Victoria like never seen before. The effect this terrible tragedy had was felt not only here, but worldwide.

Almost simultaneously Queensland was undergoing its own tragedy, with the state experiencing widespread flooding.

In response to our nation's greatest ever natural disasters, Australia's music community, along with some of the biggest music names internationally, banded together for two stadium benefit concerts that ran simultaneously in both Melbourne and Sydney under the unified banner SOUND RELIEF.

The final result of over $8 million raised is an achievement that everyone should be proud of.

The event will now be immortalised with the release of a 4DVD set on October 9.

There is 9 hours of footage featuring every artist that performed in Melbourne & Sydney.

The generosity of the artists who have waivered all royalties must be acknowledged and commended.

It was a simultaneous celebration of music and the human spirit.


ALL PROFITS FROM THE SALE OF THE DVD WILL GO TO RED CROSS TO DEVELOP PROGRAMS AND RESOURCES TO BETTER PREPARE COMMUNITIES FOR DISASTERS SUCH AS BUSHFIRES AND FLOODS
