Lukas Nelson + POTR, Oliver Stills and Chris Stills will also perform at the upcoming charity concert, which returns for its sixth installment after a three-year, pandemic-forced hiatus. Additionally, the concert will present performances by three musicians with autism, rapper Rio “Soulshocka” Wyles, opera singer Amanda Anderson and singer/guitarist Will Breman. Other performers and special guests are also expected to participate.

“With this year’s stellar lineup — and an iconic venue in the Greek Theatre, our hometown favorite — I am itching to get on stage with this crew and support the efforts of Autism Speaks!” said Stephen Stills. “It’s going to be another exciting and marvelous show.”
