The Scene Projects did a benefit for our two-year-old with type one diabetes. It was put together very quickly and was still highly successful! Bubba, is an amazing public speaker with a heart as captivating as his voice! We were so honored by all the talent that came through for our family, and all the time donated from the goodness of hearts.

It was a great pleasure to be on a song writers show with The Scene!

This was a huge opportunity for me to get in front of a new crowd and show off my lyrical abilities and talk about my projects. Bubba Startz is an incredible individual for what he puts into our entire music community and for the important events he hosts that help heal our communities. Can’t wait to do more you this whole project!
