Here’s the story as reported on scenester and all I have to ask is what the fuck? LA???? She’s local talent… and hey, my client Save The Children get the bread!!!
“With the situation at Haiti getting worse, everyone in the artist community has been steppping up and trying to do their part to help. This time it’s Fiona Apple and friends!

Fiona Apple is volunteering to host this special evening of intimate music where she will be joined onstage by Jon Brion, Tom Brosseau, Sara and Sean Watkins and Gillian Welch on drums!
With other surprise guests lined up to join Fiona Apple for the evening, there’s not doubt that the event will be one of the best with weekend and going to a great cause. Proceeds from this show will go to Save the Children, who already have an established presence in Haiti and a distribution center in Port-au-Prince.
