“Nearly all of us who work with BottleRock Napa Valley and BottleRock Presents events live in the North Bay and have been affected by these devastating fires in one way or another,” stated Dave Graham, CEO of the BottleRock Napa Valley festival and BottleRock Presents. “We felt it was important to bring music directly to the North Bay to raise both money and the spirits of our friends and neighbors in wine country.
“We are extremely grateful to all of the musicians for donating their time and talents and to the crews, volunteers, our BottleRock staff and all our partners and sponsors who have stepped up to make these benefit concerts possible.”
