A benefit concert for wildfire victims will be held tonight in St. John’s, featuring various Newfoundland traditional acts and organized by Chris Andrews and his band Shanneyganock. The sold-out event aims to raise funds for the Canadian Red Cross N.L. Wildfire Response Fund, with viewers able to tune in via multiple local media channels. Hosted by CBC’s Damhnait Doyle and NTV’s Toni Marie Wiseman, the concert will showcase artists like Buddy Wasisname and the Other Fellers and The Ennis Sisters. Previous concerts have successfully raised significant funds for disaster relief, and this event hopes to encourage community support.
