Playing For Change And The United Nations "Peace Through Music: A Global Event For The Environment" Adds Musicians To Its Dec 15 Event
New York, NY (Top40 Charts) The Playing For Change and the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) adds an impressive array of musicians to its Peace Through Music: A Global Event for the Environment, set for December 15th. The event is now proud to include performances from John Paul Jones, Derek Trucks, Susan Tedeschi, Mermans Mosengo, Jason Tamba, Nigerian drum master and legend Sikiru Adepoju, The Playing For Change Band, Lee Oskar, Introducing: Buffalo Nichols, Elle Márjá Eira,Mihirangi and spoken word artist Jordan Sanchez.

This year's global livestream will feature more than 200 artists from more than 35 countries, including Black Pumas, Jack Johnson, Rodrigo y Gabriela, Sara Bareilles, Slash, and The Lumineers, together with world leaders and influencers, to join the fight for Planet Earth. In partnership with YouTube Music, the event will be streamed on December 15th at 6 p.m. PST / 9 p.m. EST (2 a.m. GMT December 16th) exclusively on the Playing For Change YouTube channel.

The online event and fundraiser, produced by Playing For Change in partnership with the United Nations Population Fund, seeks to unite the world in taking action for a sustainable future, advance progress towards the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and amplify the voice of the most left behind, including Indigenous communities, whose knowledge and wisdom can help show us the way forward but is often unheard.

The harmful effects of human activity on the environment are impacting populations and their ecosystems around the globe, threatening to set back development efforts by decades. Those with the fewest resources and opportunities will be most susceptible, particularly the most vulnerable populations.

For this reason, through the universal language of music and the art of storytelling, Peace Through Music: A Global Event for The Environment will raise global awareness and call for real action for environmental sustainability and how it is key to achieve social justice. It will embody the unity and common purpose that beats in the heart of humanity for the protection of our only home: our planet. Artist performances, Songs Around The Worldand special documentaries will also capture the beauty and fragility of the environment during the hour-long event.

All net proceeds will go to organizations that prioritize real time solutions that facilitate environmental justice and sustainability, including Conservation International, American Rivers, World Wildlife Fund, REVERB, and the Playing For Change Foundation. Part of the funds raised will advance education programs led by the Playing For Change Foundation with the support of UNFPA to positively impact the lives and choices of adolescents and youth around the globe.
