  "account": "Bad History Month, a Philly musician known for his music under the alias Bad History Month, has released a fundraising EP following a shooting incident. In a Bandcamp post, Sprecher confirmed his well-being, stating, \"I'm okay and will heal pretty fast.\" He recounted the event, saying, \"Through a time/space error, I wound up in front of a bullet and it went through my fatted calf. I'll be fine and am a lucky person.\" The artist explained that he was working on establishing evidence of his income as a musician to potentially qualify for victim relief and worker's compensation. He requested donations of $5 for the cause, writing, \"If you wanna throw down 5 on this and make me look caked, that would be excellent.\" The EP features folk interpretations of his previous songs, including two platinum versions with backing vocals. Sprecher planned to release more music as he recovered. The EP consists of four intimate tracks that he felt were worthwhile and encouraged listeners to support him by purchasing the EP.",
