Who Are We and Why Are We Doing This?

To quote Frank Zappa…

Information is not knowledge.

Knowledge is not wisdom.

Wisdom is not truth.

Truth is not beauty.

Beauty is not love.

Love is not music.

Music is the BEST.

The Holler Fund is a Portland-based group of lifelong music lovers who, having received so much on so many levels from our music community, simply want to give something in return. Our goal is to help musicians get their music heard by more people through a grant program which will cover a portion of post-recording expenses. We will also donate to local non-profit music organizations to further their various causes and programs.

That’s pretty much it.

And thank you for filling the air with songs.

Grants for Post-Recording Expenses

  • Mastering

  • Promotional Services

  • Music Videos

  • Websites

Holler Fund grants include but are not limited to the following: mastering, publicity/PR, website help, and videos up to $2500, and will be limited to one per calendar year. Our focus is to help artists expand their audience.

We will also work with area non-profit music organizations on projects to help further their causes. Particularly live music events.

How To Donate Goods and Services

We’re always looking for partners who share our goal of helping musicians get heard. If you’d like to offer anything that might benefit a band or solo artist get to their next stage, we’d love to talk with you.  Thank you, in advance.
