CONTEST: A Very Merry CASSICA Contest

In the spirit of the season, CASSICA (604 Records artists Cat Thomson & Jessica Lee) are doing their part to spread some holiday cheer.

Not only do they have a song, “A Very Merry Christmas”, on the latest 604 Records Christmas album… and are performing at the Vancouver Christmas Market on December 18th… but the two lovely ladies have taken the initiative to raise funds for The Province’s Empty Stocking Fund. You can check out and support their fundraising page here.

Be sure to support CASSICA in their fundraising efforts! They were kind enough to agree to sign and personalize one of their holiday postcards as a giveaway here at asapmusicblog.ca. Want to win it? It’s super easy.
