Dance Music Artists Respond to the Australia Bushfires

For months, Australia has been facing some of the worst Bush Fires ever seen. In the last week, the fires have intensified extremely; about 15 million acres of bush have been burned and destroyed. Thousands of firefighters and volunteers have been working for months to control this wildfire. Unfortunately, 24 people and half a billion animals have been killed so far due to the terrifying bushfires.

The Dance Music Community has been reacting and responding to this heartbreaking issue. Dance Music Artists such as Alison Wonderland, Fisher, Timmy Trumpet, David Guetta, and Steve Aoki have attempted to raise awareness of the fires through social media and are urging their fans to donate to fire relief efforts. Some artists themselves have donated their profits to help fight the bushfires. You can view their responses down below.

I’m so proud and honoured to be an Australian. I come from one of the most beautiful countries in the world, but unfortunately my home state of NSW has now been declared a State of Emergency. Hundreds of bushfires have wreaked havoc down under where temperatures soar as high as 50 °C / 122 °F. Many have lost lives, tens of thousands have been evacuated from their homes and our wildlife has suffered unimaginable loss throughout the country. The fight against our burning landscape depends on thousands of brave and selfless volunteers giving their all to battle the blazes on the frontlines. If you would like to help, please donate to the NSW Rural Fire Service by visiting the link in my bio.

It’s unbelievable to see what this planet is turning into. The climate crisis is no joke but we all seem to look the other way when it comes to making real changes. We need to change the way we live and eat to make sure we can save this planet so animals and people don’t have to suffer like this. Make a difference yourself because no one will do it for you! Please donate anything you can to help! Link in bio ❤🌎 🐍 🦘 🐨 🕷 🌱 🌲🇦🇺
