We had so much fun playing the SMooCH Benefit for the Seattle Children’s Hospital last month! Make sure you check out @thenordypod for a behind the scenes look at the benefit and an interview with Matt!
In this week’s episode of #TheNordyPod, we’re taking you behind the scenes to learn more about SMooCH – Seattle Musicians for Children’s Hospital – an event founded by Pete and Brandy Nordstrom 13 years ago to support the Uncompensated Care program at @seattlechildrens Hospital.
Pete sat down with drummer @themattcameron (@pearljam ), who performed this year with @nudedragonsofficial (anagram for Soundgarden), as well as Dr. Jeff Sperring, CEO of Seattle Children’s Hospital, along with a family whose life has been directly impacted by the Uncompensated Care fund. You’ll also hear from @megan_jasper , CEO of @subpop Records, about what it takes to put together a show of this scale. On top of all that you’ll get to hear from a few other incredible musicians who performed this year: Doug Martsch of @builttospill , @loubarlow of @sebadohofficial , @duffmckagan and vocalist @shainashepherdmusic .

Fellow music lovers, you're in for a treat, because for this episode we're diving head first into a full-on rock concert of epic proportions. Join us for the 13th annual SMooCH benefit show at the Showbox in Seattle, where our community, this year alone, has raised over $2.2 million for Uncompensated Care at Seattle Children's Hospital. We've mentioned SMooCH before on The Nordy Pod way back in episode 3 with Megan Jasper, and again in episode 29 with Dr. Jeff Sperring, but we've never actually taken you to the show itself. If you're new to The Nordy Pod, SMooCH, which stands for Seattle Musicians for Children's Hospital, is an event that was started by Pete Nordstrom and his wife, Brandy, in 2012 after their own experience needing the care of Seattle Children's Hospital. In this episode you'll learn more about the Uncompensated Care program from return Nordy Pod guest, CEO of Seattle Children's Hospital Dr. Jeff Sperring, you'll hear from one of the many patient families that have been directly impacted by the support of the Uncompensated Care fund, and you'll hear from Megan Jasper, CEO of Sub Pop Records, who talks about what it takes to pull together a mind-blowing rock concert like SMooCH. On top of all that you'll get to hear from a few of the incredible musicians that agreed to come play the event this year. Since the very first show, SMooCH has consistently managed to bring iconic artists to the Showbox, like Macklemore, Modest Mouse, Ben Gibbard, Iron & Wine, The New Pornographers, The Head and The Heart, Sir Mix-a-Lot, Phantogram and so many more. This year's event is no different. Prepare yourself for this all-star lineup featuring Doug Martsch from Built to Spill, Sebadoh, Duff McKagan of Guns N' Roses and Velvet Revolver, and the headliner, Nudedragons (reunited members from Soundgarden). We're very grateful to all the musicians who showed up to donate their time and talents, we're grateful for those who helped organize the event, and we're super proud of our community that has donated to date over $30 million to the Uncompensated Care fund.
