Boston prepares to “Make Noise” about Suicide Prevention January 20, 2013

BOSTON – Local AMP 103.3 personality, Joe Bermudez, will bring his blended beats to the House of Blues Boston for “Make Noise 2013,” a benefit for the Samaritans.

Bermudez, who has shared the stage with Madonna and David Guetta and remixed tracks for Britney Spears, Rihanna, and Katy Perry - helping them top the Billboard charts, will keep the music thumping all night long while raising awareness and funds for youth suicide prevention through the Samaritans.

Suicide is a silent crisis. Family and friends affected by suicide often suffer quietly and alone. This event is an opportunity to rally together, support one another, and Make Noise about suicide prevention, making it a part of the community’s larger conversation.
