open/closeStrats EP Raises Funds for DID
Will Ludford, musician from The Strats, was so moved by reports of a cruelty case involving a collie in the UK that he decided to write a song, Ain't no Doubt About It, to help raise funds for Dogs in Distress. The more downloads of the EP the more money raised for Dogs in Distress.
