INTRODUCING: RENTAL YIELDS VOLUME ONE
It has begun, the spreadsheets are ready, the coffee is brewing… welcome to RENTAL YIELDS.
Front & Follow and the Gated Canal Community present RENTAL YIELDS – a multi-release collaboration project raising money to tackle homelessness in Manchester.
Inspired by our current housing system, the project encourages artists to steal (or borrow, nicely) from another artist to create their own new track – in the process producing HIGH RENTAL YIELDS.
Over 100 artists are now involved (the spreadsheet is fun), each one tasked with creating a new track from the sounds created by someone else – we are then collating the tracks and releasing them over the course of the next year.
This is VOLUME ONE, featuring the likes of Elizabeth Joan Kelly, The Leaf Library, Polypores, yellow6, Spaceship and more.
All money raised will go to SPIN (Supporting People in Need), whose purpose is to feed, shelter, clothe and generally support the homeless and people in need of Greater Manchester.
