Hey there friends, I have a really special project that I’d like to talk to you about. Most of you know that I am 1/3 of Boyce Avenue, but I’m not sure how many of you know that I also do a lot of the creative design work for our band, Boyce Avenue. This includes album artwork, tour posters, t-shirt designs, etc. Well, now I’m using my art skills to try and raise some support for the homeless community here in Sarasota, FL. I’m calling the project Paradise Portraits. I’m going to be painting a series of oil-based portraits and a portion of the profits is going to go directly toward helping these homeless individuals through a foundation here in town. There are so many special, inspirational people out there who have fallen on hard times and these paintings will help get them back on their feet again. These portraits will take a while to complete, so in the meantime I’ve released a few Paradise Portrait t-shirt designs to help get the project started. Please come hang with us on Saturday April 29 to support this exciting new project. A portion of the profits from these t-shirts will go directly to the heart of the cause. You can also follow along on social media, just search for @TheseQuietSounds or #ParadisePortraits on all of the major social media platforms. Thank you so much for listening, I appreciate your time and I hope to see you on the 29th. – Fabian Manzano
