Los Angeles based folk-punks Divided Heaven are streaming their new single “Generator”. All proceeds from the single will be donated to the LGBT Center. Drummer Nic Morreale says, “The Los Angeles LGBT Center is an incredible organization
providing health, advocacy, social, legal and housing services for hundreds of thousands of people in the LA area.
With the rising homelessness/cost of living in our hometown, as well as the disgusting attempt of the President to define
the Transgender community out of existence, we wanted–as a band–to raise awareness and money this holiday
season, and show our support. We stand in solidarity with the LGBT community and we encourage our fans, friends and
family to donate to the Los Angeles LGBT Center as well.”
