After last year’s successful fundraising concert, the Strummin’ Foundation is excited to unveil what is coming up next.
‘Strummin’ Turn Back Time’ which will be held in October was officially launched during a Beneficiary Night at NAAR Restobar hosted by the Strummin’ Foundation. This year’s show will take the audience on a time hop journey, performing a variety of arrangements showcasing different eras of music. The selected songs will take attendees for a nostalgic ride with flavours from the 1940s, all the way to current bops, including the rock ‘n’ roll 60s, the disco fever of the 70s, the irreplaceable sound of the 80s synth and the pop tunes of the 90s. As always, the stage is expected to buzz with around sixty guitarists, a band that keeps growing, much to our sound engineer’s dismay, and 30 singers that will not fail to entertain with their amazing vocal diversity and talent. The Foundation also unveiled the design and branding for Strummin’ Turn Back Time with our partners and sponsors, dna.studio. Their assistance in developing our concept and marketing is priceless.
During the launch, the Strummin’ Foundation welcomed our 2023 beneficiary, the Foodbank Lifeline Foundation Malta. Mrs Barbara Caruana, the Foodbank manager, explained their crucial work to support 300 families with the necessities they need weekly. They supply groceries to families referred by social workers from various agencies in Malta that cannot make ends meet due to financial difficulties, unemployment, illness etc. We are very excited to work alongside the Foodbank Lifeline Foundation and look forward to contributing to this worthwhile cause.
Strummin’ Foundation also proudly presented a cheque of €4,000 to Smiling with Jerome Foundation, the beneficiary of 2022’s fundraising efforts to officially conclude the year. This foundation is dedicated to helping families with children suffering from serious conditions and illnesses for which there are currently no cures. Mrs Josette Frendo, the co-Founder of Smiling with Jerome, was present to receive the donation and announced that this is the largest donation they have ever received from one source. The funds will be put to good use to support families undergoing expensive treatments or that require specific care, as well as support patients at SAMOC that receive a cancer care package from the foundation.
Join us in making this year’s show another success! Strummin’ Foundation invites you all to the 19th edition of Strummin’ being held on the 13th and 14th October 2023 at St. Agatha Auditorium Rabat (M.S.S.P), in aid of the Foodbank Lifeline Foundation Malta. For news, Easter eggs and further information please follow our website and socials https://strummin.mt. We look forward to turning back the clocks for ‘Strummin’ Turn Back Time’.
Wara s-suċċess tal-kunċert Strummin’ ttella’ f’Ottubru li għadda, Il-Fondazzjoni Strummin’ għandha pjaċir tħabbar il-proġett li jmiss!
‘Strummin’ Turn Back Time’ se jiġi mtellgħa f’Ottubru li ġej. Dan ġie mħabbar uffiċċjalment waqt lejla speċjali għal Benefiċarji ġewwa NAAR Restobar. Din is-sena l-udjenza se tittieħed fuq vjaġġ mużikali matul is-snin, b’mużika varjata li ntgħażlet minn diversi deċennji. Ir-repertorju tal-kunċert se jkun imżewwaq bin-nostalġija, b’siltiet mis-snin 40, għal kanzunetti kummerċjali ta’ żmienna, kif ukoll rock ‘n’ roll tas-snin 60, id-disco fever tas-70ijiet, il-ħoss uniku tas-synths tas-snin 80 u l-pop tad-90ijiet. Bħas-snin ta’ qabel, il-palk se jilqa’ madwar 60 kitarrist, band li kull sena tikber ugrupp ta’ 30 kantant li se jżewqu s-serata bit-talent u l-vuċijiet tagħhom. Il-Fondazzjoni nediet ukoll id-disinn tat-tema ta’ dis-sena, Strummin’ Turn Back Time mal-media partners u sponsor dna.studio.
Waqt it-tnedija, il-Fondazzjoni Strummin’ ħabbret li l-benefiċarju tal-kunċert Turn Back Time se jkunu il- Foodbank Lifeline Foundation Malta. Is-Sinjura Barbara Caruana, il-maniġer ta’ Foodbank, spjegat kemm xogħol il-Foodbank hu kruċjali biex jgħin madwar 300 familja bil-bżonnijiet kwotidjani tagħhom. Il-Foodbank jipprovdu xirjiet lil familji li jiġu referuti minn ħaddiema soċjali minn aġenziji diversi f’Malta. Dawn il-familji ma jkunux qed ilaħħqu mal-ispejjeż tal-ħajja minħabba problemi finanzjarji, qagħad, jew mard. Gwyneth Zammit, koordinatriċi tal-kunċert Strummin’ stqarret li l-Fondazzjoni tassew kuntenti li se jaħdmu biswit il-Foodbank u li se jgħinu kawża daqstant nobbli.
Il-Fondazzjoni Strummin’ ppreżentat somma ta’ €4,000 lil Smiling with Jerome Foundation, il- benefiċarji tal-kunċert tal-2022, biex b’hekk uffiċċjalment tagħlaq ix-xogħol li seħħ fis-sena li għaddiet. Din il-fondazzjoni tgħin lil familji ta’ tfal b’kundizzjonijiet serji u mard terminali. Is-Sinjura Josette Frendo, waħda mill-fundaturi ta’ Smiling with Jerome, laqgħet id-donazzjoni ta’ Strummin’ u stqarret li din kienet l-ikbar somma li qatt irċievew minn sors wieħed. Il-fondi se jiġu użati biex ikomplu jgħinu familji li qed iħallsu għall-kura li tiswiehom ħafna flus jew li tirrekjedi trattamenti speċifiċi, kif ukoll jgħinu pazjenti rrekoverati fis-SAMOC li jingħataw pakkett ta’ għajnuna mill-fondazzjoni.
Ingħaqdu mal-Fondazzjoni Strummin’ biex il-kunċert ta din is-sena jkun suċċess ieħor. Intom ilkoll mistiedna għad-19-il edizzjoni ta’ Strummin’ fit-13 u l-14 t’Ottubru 2023 fl-Awditorju ta’ Sant Agatha, ir-Rabat (M.S.S.P), b’risq il-Foodbank Lifeline Foundation Malta.

With its very first edition being held in November 2002, Strummin’ has developed to become one of Malta’s most awaited charity concerts, well known for their rock tunes and timeless classics (while still giving it that little poppy edge by choosing a song or two which everyone is playing on their radios).
