Celebrating the intersection of community and art, Friends in Bellwoods II captures the music and camaraderie that has come from Bellwoods, a small house on the fringes of Queen St. West in the heart of downtown Toronto. Coming out in the Summer of 2009, Friends in Bellwoods II will include rare and unreleased selections from The Acorn, Basia Bulat, Bruce Peninsula, The D'Urbervilles, Forest City Lovers, Great Lake Swimmers, Ohbijou, Sandro Perri, Sebastien Grainger, The Wooden Sky and many more. A benefit for The Daily Bread Food Bank in Toronto, the first edition of the compilation was released in January of 2007 and has raised over $11,000.
Daily Bread Food Bank is Toronto’s leader in the fight against hunger. Each month we serve almost 80,000 people in the GTA through our network of 160 member agencies and over 190 food relief programs. Our agencies run neighbourhood food banks where people come to access food hampers, as well as meal programs where people can access prepared meals such as soups or casseroles.
