Charity Spotlight: ABOARD Receives Donation From Helping Hands Rock Reviews

Sharon and Chip present a check to ABOARD's Jennifer Salamon
One of our goals at Helping Hands Rock Reviews is to donate every penny of income we generate from our website to deserving charities.  We are delighted to announce that we have made our second donation of 2014!

The recipient of our latest donation is ABOARD - the Advisory Board on Autism and Related Disorders.  ABOARD's mission is to "provide a lifeline to support families and individuals affected by autism."  ABOARD gives "hope and information to families and professionals by connecting them with each other, and to the resources that enable them to navigate their unique challenges."

We personally admire the work that ABOARD does and feel great about our donation going to a wonderful cause.  You can learn more about ABOARD at http://www.autism-support.org.

The Dead Deads Soar To New, Rocking Heights Thanks To Fateful Plane Ride

When one thinks of Nashville, the last genre one thinks of is grungy punk.  But Nashville is the home base for The Dead Deads and grungy punk is indeed an apt description of their music.  Think a cross between The Misfits and Hole and you won't be far off from imagining what The Dead Deads sound like.

With a national tour and a quickly growing live and social media following, The Dead Deads are one of 2014's emerging rock artists.  Helping Hands Rock Reviews recently had the pleasure of sitting down with vocalist/guitarist Doomy Dead and keyboardist/backing vocalist Hella Dead for an exclusive and revealing interview.
