Two Non-Profit organizations, Rhythm of Change (“ROC”) located in Belize and ROWKIDS from the United States will hold joint concerts to raise funds to assist with the educational needs of underprivileged children in the country of Belize. These two benefit concerts, one in Belize City on March 29th and the other in San Ignacio on March 28th, will be held under the name “ROC & ROWKIDS for Education.” Net proceeds raised from these events will go towards assisting children to attain better educational opportunities.
The concerts will be headlined by two Pop Bands from the United States who have volunteered to take part in the benefit events to assist educating the children of Belize. The headliners of the concert will be “Everlife” and “Chasen” who will be sharing the spotlight with a Belizean band.

CHASEN
Since signing with OMG Recordings, Chasen has already tasted extensive success. The band has toured heavily, opening for the likes of Reliant K, NEEDTOBREATHE, and mainstream rockers, Sister Hazel. They’ve already seen an early single, “Crazy Beautiful,” climb to a Top-5 position on Christian radio charts. Leveraging its forward-thinking predilection, OMG also orchestrated a cross-promotion with the Zipit Wireless Messenger 2, or “Z2,” whereby national advertising in the United States for the hot new teen-targeted portable device prominently features Chasen’s music. Their single “Crazy Beautiful” hit # 12 on Radio & Records CHR format and # 30 on CRW’s Top 100 songs of 2007 with only 13 weeks on the charts. The other single “Nothing Like You” was used in a million dollar ad campaign on Nickelodeon. To learn more about Chasen check out their site http://www.myspace.com/chasen
