Cooking with Hart – Helping Musicians!
In 2001, The Blues Foundation established the HART Fund through which The Blues Foundation provides assistance to Blues musicians and their families in times of great financial need due to medical emergencies. Donations to the HART Fund are dedicated 100% to artist relief efforts. Disbursements began in 2003 and have been used to pay medical bills, obtain needed medical care and assist with funeral expenses. In late 2005, contributions were temporarily earmarked to provide some financial relief for blues musicians severly impacted by Hurricane Katrina. Over the years, contributions have been made by our members and other donors and donations have also come from specific benefit events.
Chef Jimi Patricola, Leslie K Joseph and the staff of Blues411.com heard the call and put together the “Cooking with Hart” cookbook to help raise funds for this worthy cause. Sending out a call to Blues Fans and Musicians for their favorite recipes and they heard the call. Some of the artists that have contributed their favorites recipes include, Victor Wainwright, Lisa Biales, Susan Tedeschi and Liz Mandeville to name just a few. Each Recipe also includes personal notes from the artists and authors. How wonderful would it be for you to serve your family a heaping helping of “Drunken Blue Pamplemousse” or “Filipino Chicken Adobo” and help the blues foundation with this very worthy cause at the same time!
With the help of some generous sponsors they were able to get this book printed where 100% of the proceeds go directly to the HART Fund.
This hard cover cookbook features 124 recipes from Blues artists and fans around the world, with 100% of the proceeds going directly to The Blues Foundation’s HART Fund. You will not find a collection of recipes like this anywhere else! The cookbook itself is spiral bound, and features a colorful hard cover and section dividers for lasting durability. Buy it for yourself, buy it for blues friends, or anyone who likes to cook. It also makes a great autograph book. Cooking with HART is the gift that keeps on giving. Order you copies now to receive in time for the holiday gift-giving season!
The final book will be ready to ship by Mid December and will be available for sale during the upcoming International Blues Challenge in Memphis in January.
