Aloe Blacc, Others To Play Concert For California Wildfire Relief

HOLLYWOOD, CA — Aloe Blacc, G. Love, Fortunate Youth and more will perform at a virtual concert this Saturday to raise money for the California State Parks Wildfire Relief Fund Concert. Proceeds from the concert, hosted by StageIt, will aid in the recover of over 25 state parks affected by 2020 wildfires.

The live-stream will kick off at 4 p.m. on Saturday. The concert will be a pay-what-you-can event with a suggested donation of $10. Those who opt to pay more will receive special rewards, ranging from a free sticker to a free California State Parks annual pass based on amount.

The 2020 fire season was among the worst in the state's history, setting devastating records and burning millions of acres. Just recently, it was revealed that hundreds of ancient California sequoias were lost in the horrific Castle Fire, which burned over 174,000 acres of land across at least three parks.

“Seeing entire communities and our beautiful state parks impacted by this year’s wildfires was devastating. Then I remembered our resilient community–the residents in the great state of California and the millions of visitors who frequent our state parks every year,” said Kindley Walsh Lawlor, President and CEO, Parks California. “Together, with a little beat, we can find joy and a meaningful way to help our parks recover. The proceeds from this virtual concert will take us closer to rebuilding what was lost and giving each other hope that we will regrow.”

Tickets to the concert are available here.
