A weekly live music stream by Corey Paige

corey paige

(Some) Thursdays at 8pm EDT

Well, isn't this fun. In an effort to keep COVID-induced insanity at bay and raise some money for charity, I'll be streaming live acoustic music every some Thursdays at 8pm EDT for the foreseeable future. Each week I'll choose a different charity and strongly encourage you to donate a few bucks if you can swing it (consider it your virtual cover charge).

The How

I'll be streaming on both Facebook and Instagram. Just follow me and you should be able to access the stream as soon as I go live. I recommend Facebook for better sound quality, but do whatever you want. I'm not your mother.

The What

Like most of us are at the moment, I'm basically winging it. I'll be mixing old and new originals, covers, probably some requests, probably too much talking, etc. It'll be a lot like seeing me perform in person but without the smell.

Total Viewer Donations

$17,906

I know this incredible situation has been hard on everybody and times are tight. And while I certainly don't expect each viewer to send money every week (although that would be amazing), I do ask that you try your best to offer a few dollars here and there. There are a lot of people out there that can use our help. Below is some information on the charities GTFI viewers have supported so far.
