The Taylor Road Band, a local band in the greater Daytona Beach area, has donated part of its performance fee to raise money for animals at the Halifax Humane Society and Southeast Volusia Humane Society.

"We all love animals and hope to help the fundraising efforts of both shelter organizations," said Barry KuKes, one of the band's founding members. "We approach performance venues to host a fundraising event, and the band will donate a large portion of their performance fee for the animals. Having a live band helps draw more patrons and generate enhanced donations from the public, some of which may have never attended the venue before. It's a win/win for all."

KuKes retired from Halifax Humane Society as community outreach director in February 2023 but still helps the animals by playing music.

The Taylor Road Band is scheduled to play at the Mosaic ICI subdivision on Friday, June 23, and at Southeast Volusia Humane Society on Saturday, June 24. 

Both events are fundraising events. The band played at the 13th annual Mutt Strutt at the Daytona Beach Bandshell in April.
