In an ongoing effort to support young musicians and bands Council lady Maria Buncamper-Molnaus, on behalf of the Sky Is The Limit Foundation, financially assisted the Island Heat Band over the weekend.
Manager of Island Heat Band Wilfred Simmons expressed many thanks to Buncamper-Molanus for coming through for the band in such a timely manner. He said it was good to know that Buncamper and the foundation are there to assist musicians and bands whenever possible, adding that the foundation is a true friend of the arts.
Simmons said the financial assistance will go toward purchasing four new speakers. The band will continue its tour of playing at hotels and restaurants while working on a new video clip and CD of their new music. The band is also looking forward to being a competitive part of Carnival 2011.
Buncamper said Sky Is The Limit remains committed to assisting young artists when feasible, helping them to sharpen their skills and showcase their ability in the art form they love.
"We are very happy to be able to support the Island Heat Band, a hard working local band who has big plans for the immediate and long term future. We wish them the best of luck and encourage the general public to support them by purchasing their CD’s and even attending some of their fundraising events," Buncamper-Molanus said.
