A FireAid benefit concert will be held Thursday, aimed at raising funds for wildfire relief efforts in the Los Angeles area. The event, featuring many A-list musicians, is scheduled for Thursday at two venues in Inglewood, California: the Kia Forum, starting at 6:00pm PST, and the Intuit Dome, beginning at 7:30pm PST.
Performers at the Intuit Dome include Billie Eilish, Gracie Abrams, Jelly Roll, Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, Lil Baby, Olivia Rodrigo, Peso Pluma, Rod Stewart, Stevie Wonder, Sting, Tate McRae, and Earth, Wind & Fire. Meanwhile, the Kia Forum will host Alanis Morissette, Anderson .Paak, Dawes, Graham Nash, Green Day, John Fogerty, Joni Mitchell, No Doubt, Pink, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Stephen Stills, Stevie Nicks, the Black Crowes, and John Mayer. Dave Matthews, initially slated to perform, will be absent "due to a critical illness in the family," the Dave Matthews Band said on Instagram.
The Dawes band members, Taylor and Griffin Goldsmith, were directly impacted by the Eaton fire, losing parts of their Altadena homes. Mandy Moore, married to Taylor Goldsmith, shared this loss on social media.
