ALBANY, GA --
Four local bands took to the stage in support of Brynlee, a 3 year old Leukemia patient.

Band-Aid for Brynlee was held at the State Theater on Pine ave. Thorns Deep, Everyday Evidence, Anthony Johnson, and The Articles all performed with the proceeds from the show going to help off-set the cost of Brynlee's medical bills.

Not only is Brynlee battling Leukemia , she also suffers from a rare chromosomal abnormality know as Philadelphia Chromosome. She requires a 2 and a half year treatment plan which starts out with 11 months of intense treatment.

More fundraisers are in the process of being planned for Brynlee, we will pass that information along on our website in the future.
