Bones Bones Bones! (A fundraiser for Sabrina Lawrie) – Brisbane – June 11, 2016

SABRINA LAWRIE_
The Brisbane music scene has rallied together to help talented local muso Sabrina Lawrie.

We All Want To, Mick Medew and the Rumours, Some Jerks, Lords of Wong and The KT26ers will come together at The Zoo on Saturday June 11 for the Bones Bones Bones! fundraiser.

All money raised will go towards helping their dear friend, Sabrina as she recovers from a serious accident.

Sabrina recently suffered a severe fall in which she broke her back and left wrist and fractured her sternum.

She was rushed to the emergency department and two days later underwent a major operation. Eight screws and two pins were fused to her vertebrae to successfully stabilise her spine.

A mother to two-year-old Quinn and a much-loved personality in the Brisbane music community, Sabrina is a powerhouse vocalist and front woman in Sabrina Lawrie and the Hunting Party.

Also in legendary underground Brisbane bands Little Vegas & the Fuzz Parade and Tongue, she has performed in just about every venue in Brisbane and many across Australia and the US.

Sabrina has played alongside some of Australia’s best acts including, Deniz TeK, Kim Salmon, and Spencer P Jones. She was also one of the vocalists for LA supergroup The Silver Chords.

Sabrina was in the final stages of mixing her much-anticipated debut album when the accident occured.

Sabrina founded The Beetle Bar in Brisbane and works in the music industry as a merchandise rep and logistics driver. Her post operation recovery and treatment mean she is unable to work for at least three months.

“Sabrina is well loved and respected, explains Sean Clift, Sabrina Lawrie’s manager.

“She’s always friendly and ready to help other musicians, so when news spread about the accident I was inundated by calls and emails from everyone asking how they could help out.”

All bands performing at Bones Bones Bones! are donating their time. Money raised will contribute to ongoing medical and physiotherapy costs.

“This whole experience has been really challenging and a fork in the road that I didn’t see coming but also a really great reminder of the power of community. I’m feeling every single ounce of love out there,” Sabrina Lawrie said.

“I’m so pumped that some of my favourite Brissy rock bands are jumping on board for the fundraiser.

“I’d like to say thank you to so many people but a special thanks to ‘Support Act’ who have already helped to take the initial edge off during a time of financial hardship for us.”

Bones Bones Bones! featuring We All Want To, Mick Medew and the Rumours, Some Jerks, Lords of Wong and the KT26ers is on June 11 at The Zoo. Tickets are on sale through Oztix.
