"As a way to both raise funds and bring the community together, the night is set to include performances from musicians like Jackson Browne, Dawes & Friends, Aloe Blacc, Jenny Lewis, Everclear, Stephen Stills, Mandy Moore, Judith Hill, Brad Paisley, Ozomatli, Brandon Flowers of the Killers and more. Many of the featured acts have ties to Los Angeles and Altadena specifically, like Dawes, an indie band from Altadena who notably sang a lively rendition of "I Love L.A." at this year's Grammys ceremony."
"Even behind the scenes, people like Kevin Lyman, who founded the Vans Warped Tour and is a longtime Altadena resident, is working as the event's lead producer. "Music has always been a force for community. With this event, we're not just putting on a show - we're helping Altadena rebuild homes, restore businesses, and heal hearts. This night is about unity and purpose," said Lyman."
A Concert for Altadena will bring numerous prominent musicians together to raise funds and support community recovery exactly one year after the Eaton fire. Performers include Jackson Browne, Dawes & Friends, Aloe Blacc, Jenny Lewis, Everclear, Stephen Stills, Mandy Moore, Judith Hill, Brad Paisley, Ozomatli, and Brandon Flowers, among others. Many acts have direct ties to Los Angeles and Altadena; Dawes is from Altadena and Mandy Moore lost a home in the blaze. Eric Krasno helped organize and will perform; Kevin Lyman serves as lead producer. All proceeds will go to the Pasadena Community Foundation's Eaton Fire Relief & Recovery Fund and the Altadena Builds Back Foundation. The Eaton fire destroyed more than 9,000 structures and killed 19 people.
