Artist Ava Suppelsa Supports Organizations that Assist with Substance Addiction and Abuse with the Release of Debut EP

Preview Focal Track “He Told Me” Here

Emerging singer-songwriter, Ava Suppelsa, has released her self-titled debut EP on iTunes and other major digital retailers. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to organizations in which support those who suffer with substance addiction and abuse; a cause near to Suppelsa’s heart as her father received treatment when she was in her early teenage years.

“I want people to know that what I write about in my music is true and comes from the heart,” said Suppelsa. “I chose to make charitable donations through this project specifically because of the story behind, ‘Finish Line;’ it’s about witnessing alcoholism in a loved one and their journey to recovery. I hope this song, as well as the EP, can be inspiring to others.”
