It’s clear that the coming year is going to bring changes and challenges that will affect all of our lives. Some of these changes will come in the form of threats to bodily autonomy, gender equity, and reproductive rights. Still others will reveal themsevles in cultural shifts — a barrage of static intended to silence, punish, and erase our authentic selves, our creativity, and our collective power.

Since 2018, This Could Go Boom! has had one focus — to center the beautiful, diverse, and important product of artists creating music outside of a patriarchal paradigm that has overshadowed music history and dominates the industry. The work we do is more important than ever. Help us cut through the static and break the silence. Donate today!

This Could Go Boom! is a volunteer run 501(c)(3) nonprofit so 100% of your donation goes right into action. Your contribution supports programs like our performance series which has presented and paid more than 400 artists. Gifts will also help to produce our first music festival in collaboration with Maryland Heritage Areas Authority to be held in PG County in Summer 2025.

Music is a reflection of healing, survival, rebellion, and hope. The music we support is a vital lifeline for artists, youth, and communities struggling to survive. Mobilizing for change isn’t limited to election cycles. Send out a lifeline by donating today.

This Could Go Boom! is mission driven and community fueled. We thank you for your ongoing support.

It’s Not Just a Song. It’s a Lifeline.
