Friday, October 23rd – ATHENS, GA
In an effort to help rebuild and revitalize the iconic Georgia Theatre that burned
in a devastating fire on June 19th 2009, renowned and established electronic act
STS9 will perform a Live DJ set as the headliner for a Georgia Theatre Benefit.
MiMOSA and Two Fresh will also perform at the Spring Valley Eco Farm, which
is located approximately four miles from downtown Athens, Georgia. A large
portion of the proceeds from this event will help the rebuilding effort of the
legendary Athens venue.
The Georgia Theatre focused on nurturing the careers of thriving, upcoming
artists who often went on to achieve national acclaim. STS9 spent years playing
shows at the Georgia Theatre (including their sold out 9 year anniversary
‘homecoming’ concert), and the group has a strong connection with not only the
venue, but also the city of Athens. The inception of this event proves that the far-
reaching artistic community of “The Classic City” has a profound presence, which
will continue to support the venue that means so much to both musicians and
music fans around the globe.
The Spring Valley Eco Farms is a non-profit organization focusing on education,
research, and outreach to promote more ecologically sustainable agriculture.
Spring Valley sits on 100 acres on the pristine Georgia Piedmont.
More details about the benefit concert will be released through the website
created specifically for this event, http://www.rebuildthetheatre.com. For PR questions
