Steve Earle revealed the lineup for the 11th annual John Henry’s Friends Benefit Concert, which will be held on December 12 at The Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, New York. First time performer Brandi Carlile will appear alongside previous participants Margaret Glaspy, Larry Campbell and Teresa Williams.
Proceeds from the John Henry’s Friends Benefit concert will once again be given to The Keswell School, which provides educational, therapeutic, and supportive services to children and young adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The benefit concert is named after Earle’s son, John Henry, who was diagnosed with ASD.
Earle, Carlile, Glaspy, Campbell and Williams will perform together at The Capitol Theatre “in a classic guitar-pull format, taking turns performing and trading songs.”
Presale John Henry’s Friends Benefit Concert tickets are available now (code: SONGS4KESWELL). Tickets go on sale to the general public on Friday, October 3 at 10 a.m. ET.
