Paul Simon, Mary J. Blige, and More to Headline Love Rocks NYC Benefit Concert
Paul Simon, Mary J. Blige, Elvis Costello, and Hozier are set to perform at the 10th annual Love Rocks NYC benefit concert, supporting God’s Love We Deliver.
Paul Simon, Mary J. Blige, Elvis Costello, and Hozier are among the star-studded lineup slated to grace the stage at the Love Rocks NYC benefit concert next month. Celebrating its 10th year, the event will support God’s Love We Deliver, a New York-based nonprofit providing medically tailored meals to individuals battling life-altering illnesses. Last year marked the organization's 40th anniversary. Mark your calendars: the concert will take place at New York’s Beacon Theatre on March 5.
But the talent doesn't stop there. Whoopi Goldberg, Julianne Moore, J.B. Smoove, Jeff Ross, Paul Shaffer, and Zarna Garg will make special appearances. Prepare for performances by Billy F. Gibbons, Goo Goo Dolls, Jon Batiste, Linda Perry, Nile Rodgers and Chic, Preservation Hall Jazz Band, Susanna Hoffs, Trombone Shorty, and Warren Haynes, with surprise guests promised. The house band will be led by Will Lee, known for his work with Shaffer in the CBS Orchestra on The Late Show With David Letterman.
Tickets go on sale to the general public at 10 a.m. ET on Friday via Ticketmaster and the Love Rocks NYC website. Presales, via God’s Love We Deliver, begin Wednesday.
Greg Williamson, co-executive producer of Love Rocks NYC, shared his enthusiasm: "For the past 10 years, my co-executive producers Nicole Rechter, John Varvatos, and I have been on an incredible journey building and growing an unforgettable music experience — one that we are immensely proud of. As a native New Yorker, it has been a privilege to create such a meaningful platform to raise both funds and awareness for an essential organization that supports our fellow New Yorkers."
Since its inception in 2017, the event has raised $65 million for the charity, funding 6.5 million meals for New Yorkers facing severe illness.
