Also announced this month, Scott Green, Sr. was named as OP Music House’s official photographer. Scott’s primary function will be to capture local bands’ performances for media promotion as well as events that bring people together across the Western New York region, with a focus on charity and humanitarian efforts. He has extensive involvement with the Brad Delp Foundation and Depression and Suicide Prevention.

As a physical location becomes closer to reality for OP Music House, further structure is being added in the form of collaborating humanitarian efforts with the likes of the National Institute of Health, National Institutes on Mental Health, and pending meeting with former Orchard Park supervisor now head of the Family Justice Center, Mary Travers Murphy.

To this end, the community center will provide support services for victims of domestic violence and abuse, and will expand to include support for depression and suicide prevention as well as a drop-off and collection point for the WNY Food Bank.

Further, the facility will house a music venue for young adults (16-24 year olds), giving them access to instruments, staging and lighting; and a basic recording studio, while local musicians give lessons, their time, friendship and advice to this population.

When all is said and done, a coffee house will be added (ICE Café), which will feature local restaurants’ wares on a rotating basis while concurrently promoting local musicians. Perry’s plans include an internet radio show or podcasting from the site, showcasing the food and music of Western New York to the world.

The EXPOSURE Concert is a fundraising concert to not only bring awareness to abuse in the home, but to shine a light on the perpetrators and a wide-spread effort to eradicate it. Proceeds help secure a facility, operating costs and hiring of a grant writer for the 501(c)3 OP Music House, Inc.
