On September 29 the Global Festival will take place on Central Park’s Great Lawn in New York City, according to Rolling Stone.
The festival aims to promote awareness of and raise money to fight global poverty and will have some of rock music’s biggest names on the bill. Neil Young, Foo Fighters and The Black Keys will be there for what is sure to be one of the biggest rock shows of the year.
John Peets, manager of The Black Keys, said: “All of us come from Ohio, so we grew up around working-class, hard-working people, but getting a global view makes you want to give back even more.”
