Visit to the new location of Tyler’s Room  Today we visited the new location at 10 Union Square East.

Families ‘band together’ to help others (LI Herald)

by | Mar 14, 2015 | Chordoma Blog

The Fishbin family, of Port Washington, and the Seaman family, of Merrick, have known each other since their sons attended sleepaway summer camp together many years ago. Now they are joining together for the benefit of two organizations that are dear to their hearts: Rock and Wrap it Up! and Music Never Stops: The Tyler Seaman Foundation. On March 27, a concert at City Winery, the intimate concert venue and winery in downtown Manhattan, featuring Midwest funk-rock band The Main Squeeze will raise money for both organizations.

Holiday gifts

by | Jan 5, 2015 | Chordoma Blog

The supporters of Music Never Stops: the Tyler Seaman Foundation kept the good deeds coming over the holidays, as our friends made two wonderful contributions to Tyler’s Room and Mount Sinai Beth Israel. John Catt of Blue Star Connection gave two beautiful guitars: a Fender Squire Stratocaster (with striking artwork!) and an Ibanez Artcore Hollow Body. “Listen to that sustain,” as Nigel Tufnel might say. John was an early inspiration for us as we started MNS, and he’s also the person who introduced us to our remarkable partners at Mount Sinai Beth Israel. His latest gift will bring that much more joy to Tyler’s Room patients. We’re also pleased to report that Kim Brower, a friend of Tyler’s from Camp Baco, led a toy drive at PricewaterhouseCoopers that will also benefit Mount Sinai Beth Israel. Thanks,...
