Baggage Release New EP
Baggage have debuted their new EP, The Good That Never Comes, on Bandcamp. The band features Jonathan Diener, formerly of The Swellers, who had this to say about the new release:
This release is a “Pay What You Want” download and all of the money from this month is going directly into getting toiletries for Flint Water Crisis victims. At the end of the month we’ll be taking the money and shopping for the most cost effective way to fill our van with goods and dropping it off to the Bethel United Methodist Church in Flint where they have a donation station for residents. The money won’t be going to some organization that has millions of dollars saved up, this is going directly to a cause where we know it will be taken care of.
