Musicians join benefit in D.C.

While the music lineup at President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration looks thin, a benefit concert to counter Trump’s expected policies is planned in Washington, D.C., a day before his swearing-in.

Common and the National will headline a benefit and awareness rally for Planned Parenthood at D.C.’s famed 9:30 Club on Jan. 19. The free concert, called “Show Up,” is billed by organizers as a “call to action for supporters of reproductive freedom to take action wherever they are.”

“Women should be able to make their own decisions about their bodies and health,” the National’s singer, Matt Berninger, said in a statement. “This is a basic human right, and we’re at the very beginning of a long and tough battle to defend these basic rights.”
