In response to the devastating wildfires that have swept through Los Angeles, an all-star lineup of artists will come together for “G*ve a F*ck LA“, a benefit concert aimed at supporting relief efforts and aiding displaced communities.
Set for Feb. 5 at the Hollywood Palladium, the event will feature Hayley Williams, St. Vincent, and Finneas, with additional performances by Lucy Dacus, MUNA, Perfume Genius, The Linda Lindas, Phantom Planet, Courtney Barnett, Christopher Owens, Reggie Watts, Fred Armisen, Jenny Lewis, Juliette Lewis, and Scout Willis.
Actor-comedian John C. Reilly will host the evening, which will also include surprise guests and DJ sets from Harmony Tividad and Fat Tony. Following the concert, Rico Nasty and Dylan Brady host an official afterparty.
Proceeds from the concert will support local organizations, including Altadena Girls, Friends in Deed, One Voice, and the Pasadena Humane Society. Tickets are now available, as well as an option to stream the concert with a minimum donation of $5.
The announcement follows a wave of philanthropic efforts from the music community. Beyoncé’s BeyGOOD foundation has donated $2.5 million to wildfire relief, while Paris Hilton has launched a fund for displaced families. Artists such as Dave Grohl and Flavor Flav have also been involved in initiatives to assist those affected.
The concert also comes on the heels of the “FireAid” benefit concerts on Jan. 30, featuring Billie Eilish, Joni Mitchell, Green Day, Lady Gaga, Olivia Rodrigo, Earth, Wind & Fire, Gracie Abrams and many more. The event will take place at two iconic venues, the Intuit Dome and the Kia Forum in Inglewood, California.
Los Angeles has faced unprecedented destruction this month, with five wildfires displacing over 150,000 residents and causing 28 fatalities, while many remain missing.
