On October 5, The Painted Turtle will host Harvest Moon at its campsite in Lake Hughes, Los Angeles.

All proceeds from the event, produced by AEG/Goldenvoice, will go to The Painted Turtle and The Bridge School, charities that provide support to children with severe medical, speech and physical disabilities.

The two iconic folk singers will be joined by additional artists. The lineup will be announced soon.

“The concert will begin as attendees arrive to the sounds of the marimba ensemble Masanga,” the event organizers said in a statement. “As the day progresses, Neil Young and Stephen Stills will take the stage for individual sets, joined by other talented performers to be announced.” “The event will culminate with a sunset performance, creating a magical atmosphere for all who attend,” they added. “The festival-like day will also feature family-friendly activities, including face painting, food trucks, and much more.”

General Admission tickets for the event go on sale on September 6 for $275 including fees via harvestmoongathering.com.

Tickets are also available via AXS. Once on sale, fans can look for deals or get tickets to sold-out shows on StubHub.

“We’re thrilled to welcome the community to Harvest Moon at The Painted Turtle,” said April Tani, Executive Director of The Painted Turtle. “This event not only brings together amazing musicians and families but also raises vital funds for two organizations committed to changing lives. It’s a day of music, fun, and philanthropy—what could be better?”

Tina Turner

Posted on 08 September 2024 by Brian Walsh

In celebration of the 50th anniversary of Tina Turner’s debut solo album Tina Turns The Country On!, the record will be reissued with a brand new half-speed mastered vinyl and CD on November 15.

Additionally, Tina’s subsequent three albums – Acid Queen, Rough and Love Explosion – are also being reissued on vinyl and CD for the first time in more than 20 years. All four albums came during and after Tina’s exit from the Ike & Tina Turner Revue and helped her find her own voice leading up to her breakthrough album, Private Dancer.

Tina’s early career in the 1970s is a declaration of her resilience and newfound freedom, with sultry grooves and introspective lyrics capturing her progression as an artist.

Known as the “Queen of Rock ‘n’ Roll,” Tina died on May 24, 2023, at her home in Küsnacht, Switzerland, following years of illness.
