Highly Acclaimed Actor and Recording Artist, Alicia Witt, Pens Exclusive Book Deal with Harper Horizon

Harper Horizon has acquired the rights to esteemed actor and recording artist Alicia Witt’s Small Changes, an inspiring, welcoming, and simple yet effective guide to health, happiness, and sustainable living. Instead of promoting a rigid diet, Small Changes will instead offer readers a stress-and-judgment-free approach for enacting easy, incremental changes across all areas of life. Witt hopes to reach those readers who may seek to improve their physical health by spending a few extra minutes per day exercising, or those who wish to start incorporating more plant-based foods into their life, starting with just one or two simple substitutions. Those small changes, Witt will assure readers, can lead to big, positive transformations in a person’s life. Small Changes will stress the importance of being kind to yourself, rejecting hardline approaches to health and wellness, and pursuing the intentional shifts that make you feel your most authentic self. Witt’s prescriptive guidance will be complemented by insightful and entertaining stories from her unique career and on-the-go lifestyle, including the moving story of how she overcame her unhealthy relationship with food, learned to love herself, and developed wholesome, rejuvenating habits that help her take on anything life throws her way.

Most recently seen as Zelda in the final season of the Netflix mega-hit Orange is the New Black, Witt has appeared in countless television programs and feature films over a 35-year career and has released four albums as a singer-songwriter. In 2019, she starred in her eighth consecutive Countdown to Christmas movie on the Hallmark Channel. Witt has provided original music for several of the movies; she is producing, starring, and singing in the next film, for which she also wrote the story, to be released Christmas 2020.

Musicians On Call, a nonprofit that brings live and recorded music to the bedsides of patients in healthcare facilities, and Hyundai Hope On Wheels, a nonprofit committed to finding a cure for childhood cancer, are bringing smiles and welcome relief to patients and caregivers in children’s hospitals across the country with Healing Through Music. Through the series, called Musicians On Call & Hyundai Hope On Wheels present Healing Through Music, national recording artists are delivering the healing power of music to patients and caregivers with surprise, once-in-a-lifetime virtual performances. Some of music’s biggest artists volunteered with Musicians On Call and will be featured in the series, including Sia, Jason Derulo, Darius Rucker, JoJo, Lauren Alaina, Rachel Platten, Ally Brooke, Ingrid Michaelson, Fonseca, Lauren Daigle and more.

“Heal the World With Love and Music“ will be a global fundraising show for medical research to combat the novel coronavirus, which will debut in three international cities including Verona, Italy; Beijing, China; and New York City on Tuesday, September 21, 2021. Showing appreciation for the tireless efforts made by medical workers and first responders around the world who continuously put their lives on the frontline, “Heal the World With Love and Music” will feature entertainment’s biggest names from around the globe.

“Collaborating with Executive Producer Tony Renis, Gianmarco Mazzi, Boban Zlatkovic, Gianluca Curti and our award-winning production team, our goal with ‘Heal the World With Love and Music’ is to raise crucial funds for medical research towards COVID-19 and begin to lay the foundation of a post-virus recovery,” said Julius Nasso, renowned movie producer and New York City-resident who recently produced and co-directed the record-breaking “Asian Culture Carnival” concert in Beijing at the Bird’s Nest Stadium on May 15, 2019 which featured Andrea Bocelli‘s largest worldwide performance with 1.7 billion viewers and a live audience of 78,000. Following the heels of that show’s success, Nasso was tasked to produce a performance in Beijing to commemorate the 600th Anniversary of the Forbidden City, featuring Chinese Soprano Lei Jia and other notable recording artists from around the world. However, due to COVID-19, this show is postponed until further notice.

Julius Nasso continues, “For ‘Heal the World With Love and Music’ we are also thrilled to partner with Stephen Adler‘s New York-based Charity Brands Inc., a global sponsorship firm that has raised over $12 billion for partnerships between nonprofit organizations and corporations to launch this international event and who just announced the Community Inclusion Fund to raise $500 million in relief and recovery to communities impacted by COVID-19.”

As the Global Sponsorship and Charity Fundraiser for “Heal the World With Love and Music,” Charity Brands Consulting’s mission is to enable nonprofit organizations and corporations to increase reach and revenue by working together to inspire consumers and impact our society. Charity Brands previously developed the Pharmaceutical Roundtable for American Heart Association and the Association with 12 pharmaceutical companies reduced heart disease and stroke over 25% and raised over $1 billion; developed the Heart Check for American Heart Association which appeared on over 60 billion products; was the agency that created Walk America and the campaign for Healthier Babies for The March of Dimes which has raised over several hundred million dollars; acted as the agency of record for the Global Fund recipient of RED funds co-founded by U2 front man and activist Bono; acted as the licensing agent for FIFA World Cup’s collectible program; and acted as the licensing agent for ABC during the Olympics.

Additional details of each of the city’s shows including location venues, performers, programming, not-for-profits and more will be announced at a later date.

RBCxMusic launches new series to support Canadian musicians and recording artists during pandemic

RBC announced a new virtual performance series, First Up with RBCxMusic that will support and promote emerging Canadian recording artists and musicians through the challenging circumstances caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Musicians and recording artists who traditionally rely on income from paid performances continue to experience financial hardship with the suspension of live events. According to a recent survey by Music Canada and Connect Music Licensing, nearly half of artists reported they have lost more than 75% of their income since the crisis.

Applications for First Up with RBCxMusic are now open, and beginning in June, the program will spotlight emerging artists from across Canada who represent a variety of musical genres to celebrate the vast musical talent we have in our country.

RBCxMusic will select more than 100 artists to participate in the program in 2020. Selected artists will receive a $1,000 stipend to perform a 30-minute virtual set hosted on the artist’s personal Instagram channel, with media and promotional support from RBCxMusic. A schedule of each week’s musical performances will be shared at the beginning of the week on the RBCxMusic Instagram Channel, with performances taking place Thursday through Sunday evenings.

In addition to receiving funding and promotional support, recipients will have access to mentorship and networking opportunities with renowned Canadian artists through RBC’s partnership with Live Nation Canada.

First Up with RBCxMusic is open to Canadian recording artists and musicians between the ages 18 and 35, who are in the early stages of their career and seek primary income from their music. Submissions should include a brief biography, song sample, artist imagery and Instagram handle. RBCxMusic will be accepting applications for round one starting today.

RBC has a long-standing commitment to supporting emerging creatives, demonstrated through programs such as the Music Video Production (MVP) Project and the RBC Emerging Artists Project. At RBC we believe the arts play an important role in creating strong and vibrant communities, and in fostering creativity and innovation. Dedicated to supporting the careers and development of emerging artists, RBC offers funding, mentorship and training, as well as networking opportunities. Since 2015, over 13,000 alumni have been supported by the RBC Emerging Artists Project, through the RBC Foundation’s donations totaling over $8 million each year to hundreds of arts organizations across Canada.
