Boch Rock Facts
Music has always been a real passion in Ernie's life, so when a Boston radio station
asked him to write a weekly, one minute, "Rock Fact," he was intrigued by the idea.
When the Boston Herald asked to print it each week, he just couldn't say no.
Now you can sit back, relax and enjoy a
compilation of random anecdotes, weird facts and historical moments that
helped shape that magical musical mosaic we all call…Rock 'n' roll.

Keep Music in our Schools
Music Drives Us is a recognized 501(C)(3)
charity that funds music education
programs, supplies musical instruments for schools, sponsors music therapy programs, and much more.
Music Drives Us provides
grants to individuals and organizations to help keep music in our schools,
to help people study music, or enable organizations to provide concerts. Organizational Grants
help support academic and community music programs to enrich lives. Musical
Performance Grants help fund free musical performances for the community,
bringing people together. For people who want to study music, we have Scholarship Grants
to help them fund quality music instruction.
Music is a vital part of our daily lives allowing us to express ourselves and connect
with others. Music has been known to improve
scholastic performance, as well as increase concentration and self awareness. Music improves an individual’s critical analysis
skills and their ability to deal with and solve problems, while music therapy has been
shown to have a significant effect on an individual’s relaxation and recovery.
We need your help to support music in New England. Many celebrities and performers
like Sarah
Blacker and
Scott Stapp have become
music ambassadors, helping us spread our message about the importance
of keeping music in our lives. Organizations can participate in our partnership programs to help
us with our functions or projects. Not-for-profit organizations work with us as
Foundation
Partners providing mutual support and assistance.
We have an
online store where consumers can buy wonderful merchandise to spread our
message. The
guitar string bracelets are a favorite. You can also make an online donation to support music in New England.
