Hard Hittin’ Songs For Hard Hit People III
On May 5th, the third annual Hard Hittin’ Songs for Hard Hit People benefit concert will bring the Baltimore Roots Music community to Heart’s Place Homeless Shelter in a celebration of the shelters’ work and an effort to raise money for its future. For over twenty years Heart’s Place has operated in the basement of St. John’s Church in Charles Village, offering food and shelter for some of Baltimore’s thousands of homeless residents. Guests refer to Heart’s Place as the ‘Hilton’ of the homeless shelters because of the respectful, supportive staff and comfort they offer.
Caleb Stine is proud to organize a grass-roots benefit that has raised over four thousand dollars for the shelter and showcased the sweat-and-blood folk music of the areas finest musicians. Everyone donates their time, and this year, The Waterfront Hotel is even donating refreshments. It’s a win-win scenario, where the community has an outlet to support one of our great shelters and listen to bands like Television Hill, Noble Lake, and Junestar.
