To Benefit Habitat for Humanity Youth House #2 and the Fairfield Theatre.

Band Together’s vision is to create great musical events that are fun to attend and help unite the community of talented musicians in the area with people and organizations interested in channeling the funds raised to specific families that need a helping hand. In discussing the meaningfulness of these performances to their lives, Fried and Vigorito articulate four goals: 1) to make and enjoy music, 2) to use their talent and influence to help people in need, 3) to develop a network of supporters for concerts and programs, and 4) to get one step closer to Heaven.
