One of the things I love about living in Maine is discovering fabulous people doing globally fabulous things right here in my own back yard. Apparently I’m the last to know about Reverb, a non-profit run by Lauren Sullivan and her musician husband Adam Gardner, of the band Guster. They only have some of the biggest names in the music business on their client list. You can read all about them in the local papers or in Rolling Stone, Billboard Magazine, Newsweek and about a gazillion other eco-savvy media sites. Reverb is top eco-advisor to folks like Sheryl Crow, Norah Jones, John Mayer, Dave Matthews, Bonnie Raitt, Bare Naked Ladies, Linkin Park, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, The Fray, and so many more. They are all about promoting sustainability through carbon neutral concerts and venues. Their services include securing biodiesel for tour vehicles and generators, as well as providing waste reduction, recycling and green catering solutions for national acts. They can even locate eco-friendly merchandise and green sponsors. The coolest thing they do, however, is erect Eco-Villages at every show, featuring local and national non-profits, eco-friendly consumer sampling and voter registration. To date, Reverb has greened 42 national tours, 649 events, reduced 25,063 tons of CO2, teamed with 1,442 environmental groups and reached 4.4 million fans. You can connect with them right here in our forum. Click and make them a buddy and be just six degrees of separation from the Beastie Boys.
