December News
Hello everyone -
Happy Holidays to each and every one of you. How did we get here? Not sure about y'all, but 2021 has been a blur for us. Big picture, it's been a good blur full of anxiety, challenges, hope, connection, community. Hello December, we are here with our arms wide open!
We offer you our 7th annual ComboPlate Booking's Holiday Giving Guide, with the focus on giving gifts with meaning. Inspired by Nicholas Kristof's annual tradition, we wanted to share with you some of our favorite nonprofits. Thank you for considering these organizations for an end of the year donation or as a gift in someone's name:

As we are here on the topic of gift giving, we know you already know this.... but buying vinyl, cds, digital music and other merchandise from your favorite musicians always make great gifts. Thank you for supporting all of your favorite artists. One last idea/suggestion, we mentioned these side projects from the roster last year as they are also great gift ideas:
