Ninth Annual Benefit Event Raised Over
$750,000 for the American Foundation
for Suicide Prevention
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 24,
2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Audacy (NYSE: AUD) returned to
the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles
for its 9th annual "We Can Survive" on October 22. The show featured performances by
Alanis Morissette, Halsey, Weezer,
OneRepublic, Garbage and Tate McRae.
The event raised over $750,000 for
the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP), the nation's
largest suicide prevention organization that gives those affected
by suicide a nationwide community empowered by research, education
and advocacy to take action against this leading cause of
death.
"The Hollywood Bowl is the perfect backdrop for this yearly
event and we're delighted to have hosted another unforgettable
evening with these artists and fans," said Michael Martin, Senior Vice President of
Programming and Music Initiatives, Audacy. "Last night was the
perfect unofficial start to our jam-packed events season, and we're
looking forward to creating more memories with our listeners real
soon."
"We Can Survive" featured an electrifying night of performances
from the iconic Hollywood Bowl, kicked off by "Opening Act" winner
Danger Foley spinning her hypnotic R&B inspired beats.
Tate McRae took the stage with her
infectious energy setting the tone for the night opening her set
with her hyper-pop single "Don't Come Back," while Garbage led by
the indomitable Shirley Manson burst
through the bandshell delivering an incendiary display of 90s
alt-rock dominance with classics such as "Stupid Girl" and "I'm
Only Happy When It Rains." OneRepublic brought their contagious,
arena-ready spirit with a medley of fan favorites including "Kids,"
"I Lived" and "Apologize." Alt/rock hit-makers Weezer had fans on
their feet as they belted out their timeless rock anthems
"Beverly Hills," "Hash Pipe" and
"The Sweater Song." Halsey dazzled her large and loyal fans with an
epic showcase featuring pyrotechnic renditions of "Gasoline,"
"Lighthouse," and "Without Me," before handing the stage over to
Alanis Morissette. The night of
phenomenal music came to an unforgettable crescendo as Morissette
began her tour de force performance with "All I Really
Want." Morissette then brought Halsey on to stage to perform a
rousing duet of Halsey's "Alanis' Interlude." Morissette continued
an explosive litany of hits from her classic catalog showing that
the edges are still sharp on that Jagged Little Pill.
This show continued Audacy's commitment to "I'm Listening," its
flagship social impact program committed to hosting more
conversations about mental health, coupled with its annual "I'm
Listening" special, a live national broadcast that brings together
artists, athletes, medical experts and others in honest
