Star-Studded ‘LA Revival’ Benefit Concert to Aid Wildfire Victims in Nashville

Nashville's Bridgestone Arena will host 'LA Revival' on February 19, 2025 - a show to help survivors of January's deadly West Coast fires. The fires claimed 28 lives and wiped out 15,700 buildings.

The massive fires drove 200,000 residents from their homes. The hardest hit were the most vulnerable - elderly people and those with disabilities who couldn't get away from the fast-moving flames. The fires tore through Los Angeles County, leaving behind destroyed homes, schools, and businesses.

Money losses could reach between $200-275 billion. Experts say local business could drop by half in the coming months.

During the Country Radio Seminar, Thirty Tigers and Triple Tigers teamed up to put together this vital fundraiser. The big-name lineup features Dwight Yoakam, Turnpike Troubadours, Cam, Carter Faith, Shane Profitt, and Brit Taylor.

All money raised will go to MusiCares Fire Relief, the Recording Academy's charity arm. This group helps music industry workers hit by the disaster.

The fire's impact goes well beyond burned buildings. While rebuilding will create some jobs, the area now faces big drops in its economy and spending.

The disaster will push prices up due to housing shortages, worker displacement, and lost vehicles. The huge rebuilding job will put pressure on construction supplies and workers.

Since 1989, MusiCares has helped artists in need, stepping in when natural disasters destroy their instruments, gear, or way to make a living.

Tickets can be bought through the arena's website. Organizers hope to pack the house to raise as much help as possible for affected music industry workers.
