Watch! Concert for Altadena

Huge thank you to everyone who made the Concert for Altadena possible. We’re grateful to share that we raised over $450K for the Altadena Builds Back Foundation. It felt exactly like the ceremony/observance/memorial/celebration that it needed to be. And a massive thanks to all of our giant-hearted friends for saying yes.

It’s still live here, if you want to watch. And you can still bid at the silent auction for a few more days!

Altadena strong

Read Variety’s thorough recap of the night.

*****

January 7th marks a year to the day that our sweet town got ravaged by the Eaton Fire.

We’re organizing a night of music to support the Altadena Builds Back Foundation (part of the Pasadena Community Foundation) — helping rally and rebuild the community that’s given us so much.

We’ve invited some friends to join us: Eric Krasno, Stephen Stills, Lord Huron, Judith Hill, Ozomatli, Mandy Moore, Aloe Blacc, Brandon Flowers, Taboo, Jenny Lewis, Brad Paisley, Everclear, Lucius & host John C. Reilly.

It’s gonna be a heavy night but it’s going to be a beautiful one too. Tickets at https://dawestheband.com/altadena/
