The cultural sector is already underway to support those affected by the tragedy caused by the storms in Valencia, Castilla La Mancha and Andalusia, and the music sector in particular has already organized a series of concerts to help the most affected area. «After a natural disaster like the one we have experienced in many parts of the State, especially in Valencia, the human quality of citizens emerges. What follows the passage of a devastating DANA, which still lurks, is also an explosion of solidarity; “It is the people, standing up, offering the best they have to help others who need it,” says the statement from Som València, a collective created ad hoc in order to channel the desire to lend a hand to the victims.
«In situations like this, artists and professionals in the music sector can contribute what we know how to do: offer music to care for the soul and spirit; and also to channel the solidarity of an entire country saying that yes, sometimes it is good for the show to go on. But not because of the show or the artist behind it, but because of the public and the people in front of it, because of what music and art can give us to people when we are most in need. In this case, to collect and send urgent aid to Valencia.
The initial proposal was from the Barcelona label Hidden Track Recordsbut in 30 seconds it became an industry-wide project, bringing together artists, venues and all types of professionals in the music sector. This is how SOM VALÈNCIA was born, a multiple event that will take place in different cities throughout Spain starting next Monday, November 11. There will be several nights of concerts in numerous locations, the proceeds of which will go entirely to those affected through the Horta Sud Foundationa non-profit organization with more than 50 years of activity dedicated to promoting association between people and strengthening the cultural and social fabric of the municipalities of l’Horta Sud, in Valencia.
«We people come together; We unite the cities, from Barcelona to Seville passing through Burgos, Madrid, Lleida, Donosti, Girona, Murcia, Vic, Granada, Manresa, Zaragoza, Bilbao, Sabadell, Málaga, Baix Montseny, Vilassar, etc.; we join the rooms; We artists come together, big and small, of all styles and origins. We music people are coming together to do our part,” say Som València, on whose website http://somvalencia.org you can see which artists will participate in this initiative.
SOM VALÈNCIA, furthermore, is an open invitation for any city, town or entity to join by organizing their own events to raise funds using their tools (arts, networks, ticketing, etc.) or by donating the profits from their concerts and events of this kind. week, as will some festivals and entities throughout the country. More details will soon be given about the distribution of artists by rooms in the different municipalities and the schedules of the performances.
All events will have a price between €15 and €20 and tickets can be purchased starting this Thursday, November 7, at 12 noon through the platform SAYSwhich not only will not charge a commission but will take care of the amount of the banking transaction so that all the donated money reaches its recipients in full. And, just as important, it will make it easier for money to be sent as it comes in due to the situation of extreme urgency. There will also be a zero line for anyone who wants to collaborate beyond the entrance fee.
Currently, a study is being carried out to evaluate the needs of each family, municipality and community, in order to determine the level of damage caused by DANA. The municipalities were classified into three categories according to the impact: “Very High”, “High” and “Medium”. Distribution percentages will be established based on this classification, guaranteeing that the benefits are allocated entirely to the affected families. It is important to highlight that no commissions will be applied in any of the phases of the project; Neither the theaters, nor the box office, nor the artists, nor the production company, nor the foundation itself will retain any commission.
