I have been following a story about a little boy who was born with “spinal muscular atrophy”. Callum is the son of J. Robbins, who is a producer and a former member of an underground band name Jawbox.
A 2-CD benefit compilation titled For Callum will be released and all proceeds will go directly to the Robbins family to help get Callum the treatment that he needs. The compilation primarily consists of indie rock bands. Even if you don’t recognize these bands, purchasing this cd (I just bought mine) is for a good cause and you might find that you even like the music!
