We’re Supporting Concerts for Cuba 2025!
Cuba is suffering an unprecedented economic crisis, fueled by U.S sanctions, which have severely restricted access to fuel, medicine, and essential supplies. Hurricanes and blackouts have only deepened the crisis.
In response, a coalition of artists and concert producers across the U.S. have come together to raise funds for humanitarian aid for Cuba. On April 5, three incredible live performances from NYC, Chicago and the Bay Area will be streamed worldwide.
100 Musicians | 3 Cities | 1 Powerful Concert
We’re helping spread the word about this initiative and encourage you to join!
The performances were filmed live and edited by professional crews to create this two-hour streaming concert, which will be disseminated through HotHouseGlobal’s YouTube channels and Facebook Live.
The concerts were recorded on stages in New York, Chicago, and the Bay Area, in California, according to a report by Prensa Latina (PL)
Marguerite Horberg, one of the organizers of the project, quoted by PL, assured that the initiative is due to the gathering of artists and musicians who lent their voices to “support the delivery of humanitarian aid” and “alleviate the acute suffering that our families and friends are experiencing”.
