PROJECT: City of Entertainers 
PROJECT: City of Entertainers brings local independent artists together for the sole purpose of raising awareness and funds for local charities, while healing with music and fellowship. Their latest project, recording the world's longest song, will break the current Guinness Book World Record, bringing even more notoriety to our already infamous home town.  Proceeds from the song's sales will benefit the Goodie Two Shoes Foundation.
