Turning up the Volume on Climate Change & Tick-Borne Disease: This show 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
