Attendees will be encouraged to donate $10 or more to the GRAMMY Foundation's Archiving and Preservation Programs to be a part of this intimate evening of creative exploration as Alex Boyd shares the music and stories of his creative journey in writing new material for his debut album with JIVE records.

In addition, Apogee (http://www.apogeedigital.com/) will have a recording station set up for attendees to take a stab at creating their own music to take home on a USB thumb drive.

And of course there will be rock-inspired cocktails made with Tito's Handmade Vodka and DRY Soda flowing throughout the evening. (http://www.drysoda.com/)

About Tito's Handmade Vodka

Founded in 1997, Bert "Tito" Beveridge, now a 40-something geophysicist, obtained the first legal permit to distill in Texas and created Tito's Handmade Vodka. Tito distills his corn-based vodka 6 times in old-fashioned pot stills, the first of which he built himself. Tito's Handmade Vodka has gone on to win the prestigious Double Gold Unanimous Judge's Choice at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition and continues to receive critical acclaim for its impeccably pure taste, affordability, and brand growth.
