Jamie Coletta (SideOneDummy Records)

SPB: How did you choose the charities for the #TestPressThursdays auctions? Was it hard to find an organization that each band involved could support?

Coletta: We decided to split the proceeds from #TestPressThursdays with both MusiCares and Harmony Project. Both charities serve the greater good through the power of music, whether it’s helping struggling musicians with financial/medical aid or providing music education to youth who may not normally receive it.
