In a remarkable convergence of musical talents, Post Malone is set to join Joe Walsh's annual VetsAid benefit concert on November 11 at the UBS Arena in New York. The announcement, made by Walsh on October 9, adds the multi-genre artist to an already stellar lineup, promising an unforgettable night in support of veterans and their families.

An All-Star Lineup for a Worthy Cause

Post Malone, known for his genre-blending music that spans hip-hop, pop, and country, will share the stage with country superstar Eric Church, classic rock band Toto, funk legends Kool & the Gang, and Joe Walsh himself. Comedian and actor Drew Carey will take on the role of DJ for the evening.

"VetsAid is for everyone—fans of all ages, backgrounds, and musical genres," Walsh stated. "Who better to join the party than Posty—the man who can do it all and do it so well? Mix in the best of country with Eric, rock with Toto, and funk with Kool & the Gang, and you have a VetsAid for the ages. What better way to honor our veterans and their families this Veterans Day than with a night you will never forget?"

Post Malone's Musical Journey

At just 28 years old, Post Malone has established himself as one of the most versatile artists in the music industry. Bursting onto the scene with hits like "White Iverson" and "Congratulations," he has seamlessly transitioned between genres, collaborating with artists across the musical spectrum. His recent album, Austin, marks a foray into country music, showcasing his ability to reinvent himself while staying true to his artistic roots.

Joining a lineup that spans rock, country, and funk, Post Malone's presence underscores the concert's inclusive spirit. His participation is particularly noteworthy given his recent charitable efforts and support for various causes, aligning with the mission of VetsAid.

Joe Walsh's Personal Mission

Joe Walsh, the legendary guitarist of the Eagles, founded VetsAid in 2017 as a way to support veterans and their families. The cause is deeply personal for Walsh; his father was a flight instructor in the U.S. Air Force who died while on active duty when Walsh was just 20 months old.

"There was no support group for my mom and me," Walsh shared in a previous interview. "I grew up without a dad, always wondering what he would’ve thought, and always wanting to make him proud of me. So I have always been resonant to the families when a loved one doesn’t come home from war."

Since its inception, VetsAid has raised over $3 million, distributing funds to veteran-focused organizations across the country. The concert not only provides financial support but also raises awareness about the challenges veterans face, including mental health issues, homelessness, and the need for community reintegration programs.

A Night of Unity and Celebration

The choice of Veterans Day for the concert adds a layer of significance. "Everybody comes, and it’s beautiful because it’s just one big family," Walsh said. "We play our hearts out, and everyone goes home feeling happier. It's a privilege to be able to do this."

Eric Church, known for his heartfelt country songs and energetic performances, brings his own brand of authenticity to the event. "It's an honor to be part of something that gives back to those who've given so much," Church commented.

Toto, famed for hits like "Africa" and "Hold the Line," and Kool & the Gang, whose classics like "Celebration" have become party staples, add a rich diversity to the musical lineup. Their participation highlights the concert's aim to bridge generational and genre gaps, uniting audiences through a shared appreciation of music and support for veterans.

Drew Carey: From Comedy to Community

Drew Carey, who will serve as the DJ for the night, is a U.S. Marine Corps veteran himself. Known for his work on "The Drew Carey Show" and as the host of "The Price Is Right," his involvement brings an additional layer of connection to the veteran community.

"Being a part of VetsAid is a way for me to give back to my fellow veterans," Carey said. "Music has a way of healing and bringing people together, and I'm excited to contribute to that."

Continuing the Legacy

This year's concert follows a series of successful VetsAid events featuring artists like James Taylor, Chris Stapleton, Haim, and Sheryl Crow. Each concert has not only provided top-tier entertainment but also made a tangible impact on veterans' lives through the funds raised.

Walsh is also in the midst of the Eagles' farewell tour, which adds special meaning to his performance at VetsAid. "As we bring this chapter to a close, it's important to use our platform for good," he noted. "Supporting veterans is a cause that's always been close to my heart."

Tickets for the VetsAid benefit concert are currently on sale, and fans are encouraged to purchase early due to high demand. For those unable to attend in person, donations can be made through the VetsAid website, ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to contribute to this worthy cause.
