Here it is! Our very own music video for World Mental Health Day.
We reached out to samba bands to get involved with an online collab ‘D4WMHD’ (Drum for World Mental Health Day).
The mission: to learn Swan Samba’s new song ‘Health’ and raise funds for mental health charities in our local community.
We’ve been absolutely stoked with the results, as bands have learnt, recorded and submitted their take on the track, all with the aim to raise awareness and support mental health in their area.
Contributors to the project
- @swansamba – Swan Samba, Hampshire, UK
- @baybatucada9620 – Hawke’s Bay, New Zealand
- @BatidaRio – Warrington, UK
- @sambamundocommunity – Cheshire, UK
- @sambaswing – Toronto, Canada
Bands have been fundraising in their respective areas for World Mental Health Day, including free gigs, online fundraising pages and even drum flash mobs!
A final, collective amount of funds raised will be announced soon.
A huge THANK YOU goes out to all those who have been involved, taken part, donated and shared our project. But it isn’t too late to be a part of it! We’d hugely appreciate any donations to our JustGiving page
Let’s all continue to support and look out for one another and massive congrats to our samba friends in making this ambitious project such a vibe.
