Musicians for a Cause works with songwriters and nonprofit organizations to create music that brings life to worthy causes.
Our sincerest thanks goes out to all who participated in supporting our "Life in the Years" project. The music is now in place to support the next phase which will be announced soon!
The songs and stories are incredibly touching and this is truly the most comprehensive collection of songs in the world that bring compassion, love, and a touch of humor to the issues around aging.
Our goal was to create such a compelling compilation that each person who hears it finds several songs that they just have to tell someone about, and we certainly accomplished that.
The "Life in the Years" project went out to over 350,000 talented songwriters around the world. We had entries from Australia to Iceland, India to Trinidad, the United States to the United Arab Emirates, all over Europe and everywhere in between! So many songs were inspired by this event that there are now thousands more people singing songs that bring compassion, awareness and humor to the issues around aging.
The songs and stories are all very touching in their own way and represent so many important perspectives and messages. Please visit our website to seeing the final selections. It wasn't easy!
Our "Life in the Years" project is much more than the compilation CDs. The music provides the foundation for a larger initiative to support our nations elderly that will be announced soon. Please check back or sign up for our email list and we'll let you know as soon as it's announced.

Musicians for a Cause is a grass roots volunteer organization that fosters active involvement by the music community in social causes by teaming songwriters, musicians and other music professionals with nonprofit organizations, using music to bring life to the causes they support. Our goal is to ensure that every nonprofit organization that wants music to support their cause has access to it.
Music creates emotion, so we help organizations increase awareness and support for their efforts by writing songs that create an emotional bond between them and their patrons. People are much more likely to listen to a song than read a website or brochure, and if it's on an mp3 player or a CD, the message is heard over and over again and the cause comes to mind every time they hear it!
Musicians for a Cause works closely with each nonprofit organization to provide songs that have meaning and connection to their cause. We partner with songwriting groups, organizations and colleges/universities with songwriting programs who are interested in participating in projects to support a worthy cause.
If you're with a songwriting organization and interested geting more information about helping with a project, please

Our goal is to have our efforts funded not only through donations and grants, but also an occasional cover by a named artist to help bring visibility to a cause on a national level. If you're a local artist, covering a song would help too! Every time an artist covers a song it increases the number of people who may be inspired to take action.
Become part of a growing community of musicians who care!
