Tom Waits has teamed up with The David Lynch Foundation to help launch DLF Music and their ‘Download for Good’ campaign on PledgeMusic.
DLF Music will be releasing exclusive tracks, like Waits’ haunting live recording of “The Briar & The Rose,” as well as works from 16 other artist including Peter Gabriel, Iggy Pop and Moby.
All funds raised from these downloads will go to support the work of DLF in their global outreach, which includes teaching stress-reducing, health-promoting meditation to one million at-risk youth and 10,000 veterans with PTSD. The tracks are available at PledgeMusic along with some great music memorabilia including signed albums, books and artwork.
