Artists rally to support Ukraine

Like many of you, I have watched in horror as the brutal Russian invasion has led to the death of countless men, women and children, and created the worst refugee crisis in memory. I wanted to help get the word out about several initiatives underway to assist the people of Ukraine. My wife and I have donated to several charities assisting the Ukrainian people and I encourage everyone who can assist to please do so...Robert Kinsler


Big Stir Records' Christina Bulbenko, a first generation Ukrainian-American, heads effort to assist United Help Ukraine

Send humanitarian aid to Ukraine and support independent music, two causes dear to this wonderful woman's heart: meet Christina Bulbenko, first generation Ukrainian-American, CEO and co-founder of Big Stir Records, vocalist and keyboard player for The Armoires. As of today, 50% of all vinyl, CD and download sales of "Zibaldone" by The Armoires will go to UNITED HELP UKRAINE, providing medical and humanitarian support to Ukrainians affected by the Russian invasion.





The suffering and heroism of the Ukrainian people really hits home for us here at BSR, and it warms our hearts to witness the world rallying behind the beautiful and inspiring people and the culture of Christina's family. You can also donate directly to UHU, as we have done, at this link:
