World Talent Quest Presents Kim Char Meredith in Boston Area Concerts March 17 & 18; Working with One World Beat to Raise Funds for Third-World Education Initiatives
World Talent Quest proudly presents Hawaii Music Award winner Kim Char Meredith March 17 & 18 in the Boston area. The first show of this mini-MA tour will benefit two organizations under the auspice of One World Beat, a non-profit organization that unites musicians of all genres to convey a message of hope through their music. Meredith's stint as opening act for Melissa Etheridge in Honolulu "was perhaps the best concert pairing of the year" (Honolulu Star-Bulletin). Response outside her home state has been equally effusive: "If this woman gets the opportunities that she deserves she could very well become a diva that the entire world will know about in a very short time..."

(PRWEB) March 11, 2005 -- World Talent Quest proudly presents Hawaii Music
Award winner Kim Char Meredith March 17 & 18 in the Boston area. The first
show of this mini-MA tour will benefit two organizations under the auspice of
One World Beat, a non-profit organization that unites musicians of all genres to
convey a message of hope through their music.
In keeping with it’s
primary goal of "music making a difference", One World Beat is focusing
awareness and fundraising on education through its 2005 campaign, "Give A Child
A Chance". One World Beat and it’s affiliated artists (Kim Char Meredith and a
host of others) are donating to two organizations: Outside the Dream, a US-based
nonprofit working in Uganda and India to provide school fees and supplies to
orphans, street children, working youth, and other vulnerable children in Africa
and Africa; and Liberation Through Education, a nonprofit based in Haiti and the
US. LTE builds schools in rural mountainous areas where there are none
otherwise, helps students with fees, supplies, and meals, and is planning to
develop a micro-credit program for families which will help them pay for their
child's education. One World Beat’s list of supporting artists includes Phil
Collins, Paula Abdul and Alicia Keys.
Meredith's stint as opening act for
Melissa Etheridge in Honolulu "was perhaps the best concert pairing of the year"
(Honolulu Star-Bulletin). Response outside her home state has been equally
effusive: "If this woman gets the opportunities that she deserves she could very
well become a diva that the entire world will know about in a very short
time..." (Music Dish). New York concert reviewer Jed Ryan noted: I am convinced
that whether on disc or live, no one can express sheer joy and happiness better
than Kim Char Meredith...Her voice is undeniably sweet, but like the other women
of rock 'n' roll, she can belt… In person, she is just as captivating as her
music."
Meredith will be performing songs from her award-winning "Slender
Line of Lavender" cd (Passionate Women Records) and her latest release, "Give
and Take" (PWR). More information available at www.kimchar.com.
