Crawfish For A Cause

It is estimated that 1 in 4 people struggle with mental health every day. With a quarter of all people suffering, Crawfish for a Cause wants to remind you that you are not alone. While there is strength in perseverance, you do not have to struggle in silence. Find your people, reach out when you're in need and remember that self-care is never selfish. If you are struggling, call or text the National Crisis Line at 988 or reach out to the Crisis Text Line by texting "HOME" to 741741. 📸: @alexculbrethphotos

Crawfish for a Cause is proud to announce that we will be making a $20,000 donation to Hillside this year! Hillside is an Atlanta-based nonprofit providing mental health treatment for children and adolescents.   Music can help young people process emotions, reduce stress, strengthen social connection, and express experiences that may be difficult to put into words. This donation will fund Hillside’s Experiential Therapies, and expand opportunities for kids to engage with music in meaningful and therapeutic ways.   Long term, our goal is to support Hillside’s music enrichment activities like building an instrument library, hosting music camps, producing performances, and funding ongoing programming that allows kids to use music as a positive outlet. We are extremely grateful for the partnership, and look forward to supporting Hillside’s clients with music-based programming! In addition to our donation to Hillside, we will also be donating $2,000 to Nuçi's Space in Athens, GA and $2,000 to Backline Care in Nashville, TN who each offer mental health resources for local musicians and their families as well as a $1,000 donation to All Souls Counseling Center in Asheville, NC. Finally we'd like to thank everyone who came out to Mental Awakening as well as our satellite events over the past year! Because of you we are able to put on events that are not only fun but that have a real impact in our communities. Thank you and we'll see you soon!

Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there and all the women who have filled that role in someone’s life. A mother isn’t always defined by blood. Sometimes it’s the woman who showed up for you, supported you, guided you, checked in on you, believed in you, or simply made you feel loved and safe when you needed it most. Today is for the mothers, grandmothers, mentors, role models, bonus moms, and all the women who have been a source of strength, love, and support for others. Thank you for everything you do. 📸 @zatarains

💚May is Mental Health Awareness Month 💚 At Crawfish for a Cause, we believe showing up for each other matters just as much as anything else. Take a moment to check in on your people, spread a little kindness, and don’t forget to take care of yourself too. Good music and good food bring us together, but it wouldn’t be the same without you here. Our DMs are always open. #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth #CrawfishForACause #StrongerTogether #CheckIn #GoodVibes

@mentalawakeningfest -Day Zero - March 2026 Never miss a day zero show. This year it was a jam called Blursday. A set by the house band Blenda followed by an open jam. So many talented musicians hopping on and off stage, it was certainly not a night to miss. If you’re Goin’ Out West for Panics Red rocks run, be sure to check out the @crawfish.for.a.cause day zero event!

Chloe and I went to Mental Awakening a few weeks back and met some cool people, interviewed some musicians, and had an awesome time in Atlanta with the Crawfish for a Cause team. We posted a full YouTube video recapping the event - but for now enjoy this clip of Sqwerv throwing down some Billy Strangs. Can’t wait for next year! Link in bio for full video!

“Heart” by The Aint Sisters at @mentalawakeningfest . @theaintstagram put on an incredible set that was high energy and groovy. They are currently on an East Coast run, so if you’re in that area and are in need of some good live tunes, this is your band! We will have ProRes video of this set posted on YouTube in the coming days. We’re trying to build that subscriber base up! Check back for more soon! #ATL #widespreadpanic #livemusic #goodvibes #sony
