Ty Segall announced, L.A. Recovers, a benefit compilation for Los Angeles fire relief and recovery funds after the wildfires burned around 57,000 acres in Los Angeles County. Some artists a part of the compilation include Ty, King Tuff, White Fence, No Age, Charles Moothart, Jack Name, Redd Kross, Emmett Kelly, Shannon & The Clams, Shannon Lay, The Intelligence, Meatbodies and Mikal Cronin. All proceeds will go to the charities: One Voice LA – Fire Relief Fund and California Black Freedom Fund – Black LA Relief & Recovery Fund.
The compilation will feature unreleased covers with each artist covering a song by another artist in the compilation. L.A. Recovers will only be available as a physical vinyl and can be pre-ordered here.
“The idea of doing a comp turned into friends covering each other and we thought that would be a perfect thing to do for some L.A. fire relief charity fundraising. One thing was important – that everyone involved needed to have spent creative time living in L.A. It’s been very fun for everyone involved to cover each other’s music!” Ty Segall said in a press release.
One Voice LA is a charity that provides temporary financial support to pay rent and food for those currently unemployed by the fires who are looking for jobs. The Black LA Relief & Recovery Fund works directly with those in the Black community to help with their immediate and long-term needs. People can donate through these websites: One Voice and Black LA Relief & Recovery Fund.
