MONTREAL, Oct. 06, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Stingray (TSX: RAY. A; RAY. B.), a leading music, media, and technology company, is proud to join American Campus Communities in partnering with the Hi, How Are You Project, a non-profit organization dedicated to encouraging thoughtful discussion around issues of mental well-being for World Mental Health Day. On October 10 at 7pm Central/8pm Eastern, Stingray will offer music fans a free livestream of the unique awareness event on Qello Concerts by Stingray (available on mobile and all major streaming devices).

The program will feature a mix of covers of the late world-renowned musician and visual artist Daniel Johnston and original songs from a variety of artists including Jeff Tweedy, Lucius, Tunde Adebimpe, Bully, Kate Davis and Molly Burch and more. The event joins the continued efforts to promote well-being and reduce the stigma around mental health, especially among college students who are proven to be one of the most impacted groups by the stress of this year.

“Still today, the stigma surrounding mental health can prevent meaningful action and dialogue,” said Mathieu Péloquin, Senior Vice-President, Marketing and Communication of Stingray. “We could not be prouder to be teaming up with the Hi, How Are You Project to encourage crucial conversations around issues of mental well-being. The free concert livestream event offers a powerful opportunity to share the Hi, How Are You’s mission with communities worldwide and showcase performances by wonderful artists who are committed to improving lives.”
