Lady Gaga, John Mayer-Dave Matthews collab to highlight ‘FireAid’

Co-produced by the most powerful of entertainment companies, “FireAid” was expected to lure the legends. The initial lineup of superstars performing Jan. 30 at Intuit Dome and (just announced) Kia Forum matches that hype.

Dave Matthews and John Mayer are set to perform together for the first time ever at the event, organized to raise funds to rebuild communities destroyed by wildfires in the Los Angeles area.

Announced Thursday, the show will feature performances by Lady Gaga; Rod Stewart; Earth, Wind & Fire; Sting; Joni Mitchell; Red Hot Chili Peppers; Billie Eilish and her brother, Finneas; Katy Perry; Gracie Abrams; Green Day; Gwen Stefani; Jelly Roll; Lil Baby; Pink; Stephen Stills; Stevie Nicks and Tate McRae.

Also this week, the Eagles pledged $2.5 million to help stage the event. But the current Sphere headliners have not announced their participation.

Strip headliners pepper the list. Gaga, Stewart, EWF, Sting, Perry and Stefani have all starred in residency productions in Las Vegas. Mayer has appeared with Dead & Company at Sphere.

“FireAid” is a partnership of Live Nation and AEG Presents, along with the family of entertainment icon Irving Azoff and his Full Stop Management company.

Additional artists, special guests and lineups for each venue will be announced in the coming days. The one-night-only event begins at 6 p.m.

Fans can access and donate to the cause, as “FireAid” will be broadcast and streamed live on a multitude of platforms, and at select AMC Theatre locations. IHeartRadio is the national audio partner to FireAid, employing its more than 860 radio stations, its digital platforms and the iHeartRadio app.
