Music for Action: Turning up the volume on climate change & tick-borne disease
September 22, 6 pm • Central Park, NYC
Join LymeLnk for a free outdoor concert • 6:00–10:00 pm • All ages welcome
SummerStage, Central Park • Rumsey Playfield, E 71st St and East Drive, New York, NY 10021
PRESENTED BY CITY PARKS FOUNDATION AND LYMELNK
Generously supported by the Steven & Alexandra Cohen Foundation’s Cohen Lyme & Tickborne Disease Initiative and Ticks Suck®.
Turning up the Volume on Climate Change & Tick-Borne Disease: Music for Action is raising awareness about climate change and the resulting increase in tick-borne diseases, including in urban areas and city parks. Concert-goers will leave equipped to stay safe while enjoying the outdoors.
Performing for the evening is multi-platinum Southern California rock band Young the Giant, known for their hit songs like “Cough Syrup” and “My Body.” Their sixth full-length album, Victory Garden, explores themes of resilience and connection, culminating their years of advocacy and music. The group has made environmental action a priority on the road, partnering with environmental nonprofit REVERB to reduce the impact of its tours by calculating its tour-related carbon footprint, supporting local climate and social nonprofits in the communities it visits, and contributing a portion of ticket proceeds to REVERB’s Climate Project Portfolio. Joining the bill is Jean-Philip Grobler and Patti Beranek’s alt-pop project St. Lucia, performing work from their album Dusk.
For a chance to win VIP tickets to Music for Action, a Climate Week Concert, you can RSVP for the show here, although, as with all SummerStage shows, this one remains free, first come, first served until we fill up. RSVP is not required to attend this show and does not guarantee entry.
