On Feb. 13 (Valentine's Day), David Byrne, Mickey Hart, Jackson Browne, Nathaniel Rateliff, The Chicks, Kurt Vile and more will perform as part of 'Food For Love,' a benefit concert aiding the New Mexico Association of Food Banks.

The concert is free and will be streamed on YouTube, but fans are encouraged to donate to the cause. According to a press release, "100% of every dollar raised goes directly to feed the hungry. $1 creates up to four nutritious meals."

"On February 13 (Valentine’s Day Eve), some musician friends of mine, and many I’ve never met, are doing a virtual concert to raise money for meals for New Mexico’s hardest hit," Byrne said ina press release. "New Mexico ranks almost at the bottom in poverty (49th) in the US and the Navajo and other Native American lands have long been short of basic health, jobs and education services- so the impact of Covid on these folks has been devastating."

Ahead of the upcoming performance, Byrne put together a Food For Love playlist. Stream it here.
