Emerging Artists = Emerging Hope

The bad news: Feeding America released the latest figures on food insecurity and it's not good in Missouri. Twenty percent of Missouri's kids are living with food insecurity. Most of these kids are under the age of five, so they don't benefit from school breakfast and lunch programs.

The good news: LiveFeed's helping, with the help of so many of you! At our first Rock n' Romp at The Royale on April 26th, parents and kids managed to halfway fill a 33-gallon barrel with canned food items in a mere two hours.

This weekend, we have another opportunity for you to help while catching some great live music. ALIVE Magazine's St. Louis Emerging Artist Music Festival will donate a portion of their ticket sales to LiveFeed. Come down to Washington Avenue between 19th and 20th Streets from 3-8 PM this Saturday and catch the bands ALIVE readers voted into the show. Tickets are $5 in advance and $10 at the show.

Want a sneak preview? Check out the bands who'll be there:

Dogtown Allstars
Earthworms
Jon Hardy and the Public
Nite Owl
Soul Alliance
Sunmotel
