YOU DIDN'T COME THIS FAR TO STOP

IT STARTED DURING GRIZ'S HIATUS.

Inspired by his past charity events, a few friends started a stream of their own. It grew into a worldwide group of musicians, visual artists and advocates who raise money and share art through livestreams, with viewers from coast to coast plus France and Greece.
