RALEIGH, N.C. — Band Together NC and 95.7 FM That Station have teamed up to help raise money for local concert venues.
"Save That Stage" focuses on small, local clubs that are struggling to survive after being closed for most of the year due to the coronavirus pandemic. The fundraiser will run through October.
That Station, an app-based radio station based out of Raleigh and owned by Capitol Broadcasting Company, is taking donations via its website. Venues can also apply for funds through the site.

"The pandemic has impacted all of us, but for those who make a living providing access to live music things have become dire. Concert venues have been closed for 7 months. No live music means no income, which means people lose jobs and doors close. Our small privately owned concert venues have reached that point. Without our help, they will not be able to survive," a message on That Station website reads.

The campaign is specifically targeting smaller venues that not only host national tours but also provide local artists a place to perform.
