A Benefit Concert Supporting the American Red Cross
By Fire Chief Sam DiGiovanna
The Westin Rancho Mirage Golf Resort & Spa is honored to host a star-studded benefit concert, Musicians for CA Wildfire Relief, on February 11, 2025, inside the Celebrity Ballroom to support those impacted by the devastating wildfires in California. All proceeds from the event will be donated to the American Red Cross, providing vital aid to communities in need and helping rebuild lives affected by the 2025 California wildfires.
This unforgettable evening will feature live performances from talented artists, including The Barry Baughn Blues Band, Lisa Lynn and The Broken Hallelujahs, and The Funk Monks, with special guest appearances from renowned musicians such as Mike Reno (Loverboy), Tommy Castro (Tommy Castro and The Painkillers), Deanna Bogart, and Laurie Morvan (Laurie Morvan Band), among many others.
The event will also feature both silent and live auctions, offering unique items, including a custom-built guitar honoring the late blues legend, Kal David. Attendees can also enjoy food and cocktails available for purchase at no-host stations.
Endorsed by the California State Firefighters Association, this event is made possible by the generous support of The Westin Rancho Mirage, Jam On The Rocks Productions, Encore Global, and CYM Lighting.
“We’re thrilled to bring together such an incredible group of artists and community members for this important cause,” said Tom Scaramellino, General Manager of The Westin Rancho Mirage. “By uniting through music, we can help provide immediate relief to those affected by the wildfires and bring hope to their recovery efforts.”
