Soundcloud Profile of the Week: Strummerville

Each week, I will be featuring an unsigned/independent artist that I discovered on Soundcloud. I will play a song from them during the new music hour at 6:30 on my show that week, and will write a bit more about them here.  

This week I'm doing something different. Instead of featuring a band, I'm featuring a charity. Strummerville is a charity out of London that was founded by the family & friends of Joe Strummer of The Clash after his death. In addition to helping out with worldwide music projects such as WayOUT Project in Sierra Leone, Strummerville provides resources to London musicians so they can record and showcase their music. On their Soundcloud page, there are over 600 songs from artists they have helped out that are available for free download. Here are a few of the most recent songs they have posted:
