Earlier this year, the local newgrass oufit Honeybucket contributed the song “Old High Road” to the Cleveland International Film Festival trailer. As a thank you, the group has just re-released the track as a single along with “Oh, Dolores,” a previously unreleased bonus track.

All proceeds from iTunes or Bandcamp sales of “Old High Road (C.I.F.F. Mix)” or “Oh, Dolores” go entirely to CIFF. For every play on Spotify of either “Old High Road (C.I.F.F. Mix)” or “Oh, Dolores,” the band will donate 25 cents of its own money (up to $500). All proceeds from the 100 download cards the group is selling at its shows will also go to CIFF.

The band had planned to limit the fundraising to two weeks, ending this coming Monday, but it’s just announced plans to extend the promotion to Friday, July 15.
