About the event – MuSic for MS, a Pittsburgh based charity music festival will take place virtually on August 15, 2020 with access through the Music for MS website with links to YouTube and Facebook. The event is being broadcast from the Corbriwood Stage in West Deer, PA. The seventh annual music festival will feature performances by the Music for MS house band, Pittsburgh based Tullycavy and headlined by Nashville’s November Blue Band. Michele Michaels from WDVE radio will provide welcoming comments and the broadcast will include information regarding Multiple Sclerosis and provide opportunities to contribute to the cause.
“We are excited to be able to present the music festival in a different format this year and continue our efforts to assist those living with Multiple Sclerosis. This format will allow access for all to enjoy the music and learn about the cause from wherever you may be located. This year the weather won’t stop us! We are especially excited to bring back November Blue as our headlining act. Based in Nashville but all native sons of Western, PA, November Blue delivers a dynamite blend of Americana, blues, country and folk-rock music that will catch your attention – tasteful harmonies, stellar musicianship, clever lyrics and arrangements on their own songs and covers that rival the original versions.” says Michael Arnold, member of the MuSic for MS committee (whose sister Dorothy lives with Multiple Sclerosis).
