Asheville is buzzing with excitement and compassion this week, as musicians from all corners of the country rally to aid the recovery efforts in the wake of Hurricane Helene. The storm left a serious impact on Western North Carolina, but the community is coming together stronger than ever to help each other rebuild.
Today, the launch of a remarkable album titled “Cardinals At The Window” marks a significant milestone in this collective effort. This compilation features a staggering 135 tracks, all filled with unreleased music from a diverse range of artists. From indie favorites to big-name stars, the album showcases a true blend of sounds aimed at bringing healing and support to those affected by the hurricane.
Some of the notable artists contributing to this charity album include Tyler Childers, R.E.M., Fleet Foxes, The War on Drugs, Jason Isbell, and Phish. Asheville’s own MJ Lenderman, Angel Olsen, and Indigo De Souza are also featured, representing the vibrant local music scene that’s garnered national attention.
The funds raised from the sale of “Cardinals At The Window” will be directed to several key organizations dedicated to helping the community recover. These include BeLoved Asheville, which focuses on supporting individuals and families in need, as well as Rural Organizing and Resilience, which work to empower local communities. Additionally, the Community Foundation of Western North Carolina will also benefit from the album’s proceeds, ensuring that aid reaches those most affected by the storm.
