Aloe Blacc Announces Special Fundraising Performance During Forthcoming Blue Note NYC Residency to Support Families Affected by Recent LA Fires

Grammy-nominated artist Aloe Blacc is adding a special philanthropic touch to his forthcoming three-night residency at the iconic Blue Note Jazz Club in New York City from January 24-26, 2025, with two performances each night at 8PM and 10:30PM local time.

On Sunday, January 26, Aloe will dedicate the final performance of his residency ( 10:30PM) to raising funds and support for families affected by the recent devastating wildfires in Los Angeles, which have also impacted his own home and community. The evening will include Aloe's signature mix of soulful classics like "Wake Me Up" and "I Need a Dollar," along with songs from his forthcoming album, Stand Together (out February 28).

Proceeds from ticket sales, merchandise, and on-site donations collected during the Sunday show will go directly to families in need within the Altadena community, with a focus on vulnerable Black and Latino families identified by Aloe and his wife, Maya Jupiter. The couple has long been committed to using their platform to uplift underrepresented communities and felt a personal responsibility to extend support during this time of recovery.

Audience members will also have the option to contribute additional donations on-site during the event, and merchandise sales will further benefit the cause. This fundraising performance highlights Aloe's ongoing commitment to blending his artistry with activism, using music as a force for good.

A limited number of tickets remain for Aloe's performances for Sunday's fundraiser, plus Saturday's 10:30 PM performances. All other performances are SOLD OUT. Ticket information can be found HERE .

Aloe recently performed his inspiring single "Shine" on Good Morning America as part of the #SoCalStrong special, which raised over $8.5 million for wildfire recovery efforts in Southern California. Speaking passionately about the resilience of the LA community, Aloe's performance highlighted his deep connection to his hometown and his commitment to supporting those in need.
