In response to the violence at the white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, VA this past August by white supremacists that left Heather Heyer dead and many injured, some of the city's most famous sons decided to raise money and awareness the best way they knew how.
Hometown heroes the Dave Matthews Band are hosting A Concert for Charlottesville on Sunday night starting at 6 p.m. Billed as "an evening of music and unity," the show will include performances by DMB, Pharrell Williams, Justin Timberlake, Ariana Grande, the Roots, Brittany Howard of the Alabama Shakes, Cage the Elephant, and Timberlake's onetime duet partner, country star Chris Stapleton, as well as special guests.
While tickets are free, attendees are encouraged to make donations. The money collected will go to "victims of the events in Charlottesville on August 11 and 12, their families, first responders, and organizations devoted to the promotion of healing, unity and justice locally and nationwide."
You can watch A Concert for Charlottesville via the stream above, or via one of these platforms.
