The fires in Southern California have left thousands of people affected. In the face of the devastating situation, efforts continue to be made to help the city of Los Angeles, where the remains of homes consumed by fire and several regions destroyed have been left behind. For this reason, the music industry has announced the FireAid charity concert, an initiative sponsored by Live Nation and AEG Presents, which will feature the participation of figures such as Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, and Band Billie Eilish, among others.
