Jackie's House by Joshua Virtue
UPDATE: Jackie's House was originally intended to act as a means of income for my mother, Jackie, during the pandemic. Due to the recent success of our GoFundMe and some other unfathomable blessings, Jackie's financial situation has really turned around. That said, she has insisted that I keep any profit made off the album from now on until we decide otherwise. Just wanted to stay transparent. Thank you for everything ya'll have contributed thus far. I can't imagine how we would have gotten through this without ya'll. - JV
“Jackie’s House” is the second album by Joshua Virtue. It was crafted almost entirely within the first two weeks of Illinois' state mandated stay-at-home order during the corona virus pandemic. "Jackie’s House" is meant to act as a means of sustenance for Joshua's mother Jacqueline (Jackie,) sister, and grandmother, supporting them as they quarantine at their home in Florida during the crisis. “Jackie’s House” is an emergency album. As such, if you listen, we ask that you pay, even if it's just a little bit. This album acts as a circuit of community care, providing Joshua's family with food and security at a time where such necessities remain uncertain. All profit made from this album will go to Jacqueline Virtue. Keep in mind that, whatever you pay, Bandcamp will take %10 of the donation, as it must to keep itself afloat. Please donate accordingly. You can also donate directly to Jacqueline's Cashapp and Venmo, provided below. If you can’t buy, we ask that you share. We are all we’ve got.
