For a kinder childhood · Pre-orders opening soon

One record.
Two missions.
Every child.

Too many children face battles no child should ever have to fight. Side by Side turns music into care, and every record pre-ordered helps the children who need it most.

Why we exist

Somewhere between the rhythm of life and the work we do every day, there is a quiet reality: too many children face battles no child should ever have to fight.

From the invisible weight of mental trauma to facing terminal illness in pediatric hospice care, their courage breaks our hearts and inspires us all at once. That's why The House Lounge created Side by Side, a private initiative with one simple idea: pre-order the record, support the care.

Our missions

Two missions, one heart.

What the record raises is shared between two missions close to our hearts.

Mission 01

Prevention

Early mental health support for young people, so children are heard and helped before the weight becomes too heavy to carry.

Mission 02

Comfort & Dignity

Comfort, care and dignity for children living with serious illness, and for the families who stand beside them.

The record

#BenefitEdition
