(RED) And Live Nation Announce New Dates For (RED)Nights
The Concert Series To Help Eliminate AIDS In Africa

Built To Spill
(RED) and Live Nation recently announced new dates for (RED)Nights, an innovative series of 26 concerts in the U.S. to generate money and awareness for the ultimate goal of eliminating AIDS in Africa. The set of shows will feature concerts by artists Built to Spill, Thievery Corporation, Brandi Carlile, Ingrid Michaelson, Joshua Radin and Sondre Lerche at venues such as The Fillmore in San Francisco, Paradise Lounge in Boston and the House of Blues in Chicago.

At each of these shows, (RED)NIGHTS and the community of acclaimed artists aim to inspire fans to participate in (RED)’s mission to eliminate AIDS in Africa by pausing to highlight the many ways to get involved and encouraging those in the audience to share the message and experience with others.

Ultimately, it is the goal of (RED)NIGHTS to build a community of artists, concertgoers and music fans that are passionate about helping to fight AIDS in Africa. A portion of the proceeds of each (RED)NIGHTS concert goes directly to The Global Fund.

(RED)Nights arrives on the heels of (RED)WIRE, the innovative new digital music service from (RED). The (RED)Nights artists join an impressive community of (RED) artists who are participating in (RED)Wire, including U2, Coldplay, The Killers, Jay-Z, Elvis Costello, TV On The Radio, and many more. (RED)Nights and (RED)Wire mark the first time (RED) has moved into the music arena and are a mutual extension of (RED)’s mission, whereby the music community is coming together as a vehicle to raise awareness and funds to help fight AIDS in Africa.
