"The damage and destruction caused by Hurricane Helene to my beloved home of Asheville and all of Western North Carolina has truly devastated me," shares Warren Haynes. "Every year, it is my honor to host the Christmas Jam and give back to the community there, but this year, we need to do things a bit differently. I'm thrilled to partner with my good friends in Dave Matthews Band and so many other musician friends to bring 'SOULSHINE' to the iconic Madison Square Garden and help raise money for all those affected by both hurricanes throughout North Carolina and Florida. My heart is with you all and we look forward to creating a really special night!"
