Benefit Braddock Starts Tonight

"Benefit Braddock" is a charity event that starts tonight and will hopefully pull the Pennsylvania town out of the economic slump they've been in since the Reagan administration.

Braddock, PA

Levi's "Benefit Braddock" is a charity event that starts tonight in Pennsylvania and features music from people like Andrew Bird, Built to Spill, The Hold Steady, Kurt Vile and the Violators, Titus Andronicus, and Atlas Sound. The deal here is it's an effort to raise funds for the struggling Pennsylvania town that has been mired by economic distress since the Reagan administration. All ticket sales will go to rebuilding the town and will be matched with a tripled contribution by Levi’s. Even you nihilistic bums can't say no to that.
