Singer Brian Johnson (AC/DC) has been announced as the first patron of the Graham Wylie Foundation, reports ChronicleLive. The rock superstar didn’t hesitate to say yes when asked to officially support the foundation by its namesake founder, one of the North East’s best-known entrepreneurs and philanthropists.
The foundation’s first project is to open a Nordoff Robbins music therapy centre in Newcastle - the first of its kind outside of London - and Brian said he was thrilled to be involved.
The Gateshead-born star said: “I am very proud and privileged to be the first patron of the Graham Wylie Foundation. I strongly believe in the power of music to help children and adults through the tough times of ill health.
“The Brian Johnson Music Therapy Room in Sarasota, Florida, is flourishing and the results are wonderful, but now to be asked to be involved in something from my hometown makes me very proud.”
