...And this is why I love this band. I am a big lover of all types of music and artists but what really gets me about this band is their involvement in social causes and actually making a difference - not only for organizations but in individuals lives. Especially at this time of year when the true meaning of the season gets easily lost behind commercialism and capitalism.

Ed Ved is a cool cat. What I like is all of the things they do without any of us knowing about it. They do it because they care, not about the publicity.

Exactly. It's not about getting noticed, it's about being kind and helping where we can. Because helping others brings true joy.
