Last week, GRiZ announced the return of his 12 Days of GRiZMAS holiday series. Embarking on its fourth annual year, the twelve-day event promises to continue its stance to focus on charity and give back to the city that raised him. The festivities begin on December 5th and conclude on December 16 with the two-day GRiZMAS show. At this music spectacular, you can expect to dive head first into multiple fan-involved activities, including bowling, caroling, yoga, an industry panel, a GRiZMACON bar tour, and more. This year will also see the first ever GRiZMAS pop-up shop, acting as the hub for all things GRiZMAS, featuring a limited merchandise shop and much more. Of course, all process here will benefit Little Kids Rock, a national non-profit bringing music education programs and instruments to under-served public schools nationwide.
As the story simply goes…Music saved his life, but Detroit built him. GRiZ is in the midst of his journey to do all he can to give back to his community by helping to develop a support network for creative kids in a city ripe for artistic renaissance. By turning the benefit of this cause towards fostering the spirit of Detroit, GRiZ continues to set the intention towards further development in his own backyard. Growing up learning music within the progressive container of Detroit’s music scene changed his life, so as a continuation of his roots, he is now working with a philanthropic cause aimed to help kids in the city flourish as he did. Little Kids Rock receives 100% of the proceeds from every charitable GRiZMAS. So far, the event has collectively raised over $80,000.
It has been through international growth that GRiZ has risen as one of the new faces of Detroit’s monumental electronic scene, and it is with this responsibility that he turns back towards the community that bred him to give back in his own unique way.
Cheers to GRiZ for exemplifying what the holiday season is truly all about!
