Not only is Grammy Award winner and 2010 Grammy nominee TobyMac busy making plans for his spring tour with Skillet on the 'Awake Tonight' tour, but as reported in Countdown to TobyMac's 'Tonight' with iTunes, iTunes has teamed up with him on a special promotion. Each week iTunes is offering an exclusive opportunity to purchase and download a new single from 'Tonight' leading as the street date of February 9 approaches. 

This week the Countdown single is “Get Back Up” and TobyMac has decided to donate 100% of his artist royalties from the “Get Back Up”  first week's sales to relief efforts in Haiti.  In light of the the devastation in Haiti, TobyMac has decided proceeds will be divided up among the Hands and Feet Organization, Restore Haiti, and Compassion International.

"The world is responding in a beautiful way to this tragedy haitians are experiencing,” the Nashville artist says.  “If I am going to create art that speaks of compassion than I must live that out.  I wanted my new release "Get Back Up" to benefit Haiti in their tragedy and I am blessed to use my music to help as your purchase becomes our gift. "

    I've been impressed by Toby Mac over the years and the way he's allowed God to use him. Sounds like he's at it again.
    Thanks for sharing this story.
