"Everything starts with education, and the more things like that we can get back up and running, the better," Drummond said.
The band is also giving 100 underprivileged children in the New Orleans area tickets to attend New Orleans Voodoo arena football games. Transportation will be included, Drummond said.
As for Better Than Ezra, the band continues to tour and make recordings, but for the first time in its roughly 20 year existence all three band members are not living in the same city.
Kevin Griffin, a Monroe native who formed the band in 1987 while in college at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge, moved from New Orleans to Los Angeles in 2006. Drummond and the band's drummer Travis McNabb still live in New Orleans.
