Music

 
 

In the wake of the devastation caused by Hurricane Irene and the recent storms, Proctors, it’s unionized workers and numerous local organizations, media outlets and companies have joined forces with several top regional music acts to present Capital Region Relief, a benefit concert event.

This all-ages show will feature performances by 7 top-drawing, Capital Region-based musicians and bands, that includes:

  • Ten Year Vamp
  • The Audiostars
  • The Fighting 86S
  • Garland Nelson & Soul Session
  • The Chris Dukes Band
  • Joe Roy Jackson

Plus!

  • Blues Legend Ernie Williams

This event will raise funds to assist residents of all affected Capital Region communities. Proceeds will directly benefit the disaster relief fund of The American Red Cross of Northeastern New York.

Best of all, Proctors, its stagehands, the participating bands -- and every person and entity involved in producing this event – are donating their services.  All money raised at the Capital Region Relief concert will go to the Red Cross fund for use in the immediate Capital District area.

The promoters hope to fill every single seat.

Recommended for All Ages.

Ticket Price: $10
