The mark of a morally mature society is how it cares for its members in time of need
Philadelphia Blues Society member and long-time bluesman Tom Craig desperately needs our help. Tom is a much loved and popular figure along the east coast from Maine to Florida, known for his clear voice, crisp guitar work and everyman appeal. The whole music community to was devastated to learn that Tom was diagnosed with a very aggressive form of brain cancer that required immediate surgery followed by intensive rehab. Tom is now recuperating at home with his wife Victoria, facing an uncertain future and mountains of medical debt. His brothers and sisters in music have held fundraisers and launched a GF page (https://gofund.me/7d28070e) to help Tom's family in their time of dire need.
The Philadelphia Blues Society is pitching in with a fundraising benefit at Jamey's featuring five great bands including the Girke-Davis Project, the Mikey Junior Band, the Mark Margolies Band, Slim and the Perkolators and the Lonnie Shields Band headlining, a fender guitar auction and 50/50 raffle. This promises to be another great day of music and love for Tom, and we hope you will join us for brunch, blues and more!
