New charity venture Vinyls for Good has launched as a collaboration between NYHed Studios and a Spanish beer company to support local bars and restaurants affected by the global pandemic crisis.

By purchasing a vinyl record featuring two songs from up-and-coming Spanish band Go Cactus (“Would You Hold My Hand” & “Hippie Jump”) on sale in over 150 establishments in New York, Florida, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Maryland and Washington, DC, supporters can help reduce the impact of COVID-19 on the hospitality industry. All proceeds go directly to the businesses.

Resident Producer and co-owner of the analog and digital NYHed Studio, Rocio Verta-Ray has a multi-generational connection to the beer company and she produced these exclusive tracks from Go Cactus.

Verta-Ray says:

“Artists and musicians need an outlet and the bars, halls and clubs where they play are the essential proving grounds where their creative drive can flower. And bars are where we all congregate, to share a laugh, great music and perhaps a cool beer. For me, Vinyls For Good is the perfect project to respond to this crisis since it supports both the musicians as well as the live venues and bars that until recently were the lifeblood of in-person performances.”
