Zedd posted the following on his Facebook page about the event:
As an immigrant myself I feel the need to stand up for what I believe is right. I didn’t wanna just sit and watch so I decided to take action and call my friends for help and support to participate in a fundraising concert for the ACLU Nationwide.
HUGE THANK YOU to all artists who agreed to play this with less than 24h notice!!
This is about COMING TOGETHER for a good cause – not about ego, billing or set times.
Every artist will perform anywhere from 3 songs to 30mins. Some will do acoustic sets, some will do unique collaborations. One thing everybody has in common: we all want to help!
Full details about the event along with tickets will be provided next Thursday, February 9th.
