Particle Accelerator Benefit Show for Mental Health
FREE AND ALL AGES!!

Many acts, including the TickleBomb Orchestra, come together once a year to celebrate the life of a friend we lost (as many of us have) to declining mental health with no affordable releif. All proceeds go towards helping those without health insurance get the medical attention they need.
Here’s a video trailer from last year’s show, to get you pumped! This is a VERY VERY VERY special show to us for personal reasons, and as always it would help very much to see you there offering support. Good times, good music, good people…let’s do it!

That’s it…for now. Do know that the album is nearing the completion of the tracking phase and will be going into heavy mixing. I’m not putting anything in stone, but we’re hoping to have a September release date.
Stay beautiful.
