Music has an extraordinary power to heal, inspire, and bring communities together.

We invite you to experience this magic firsthand while supporting a cause that's changing lives across the country. Can'd Aid is building a movement of generosity—rallying volunteers and partnering with touring musicians to put instruments directly into the hands of young people who need them most. From underserved school districts to local music programs, Can'd Aid is ensuring that every child has the tools to explore music as a creative outlet and pathway to wellness.

The Music That'll Move You:

Intimate "Songwriters in the Round" format with some of South's best bluegrass and Americana musicians. Learn about the songwriting process, listen to the stories that shaped the music and hear first-hand how music changes lives.

This special stripped-down performance will remind you why live music is pure magic!

The Sips & Snacks That'll Sustain You:
Elevated small bites from Salud in Birmingham will feature locally sourced farm-fresh ingredients, ensuring the food is as memorable as the music. Plus Grassroots wine, craft beer from Alabama Beer Company, and signature cocktails that perfectly complement the evening.

Tax deductible tickets include food, drinks, entertainment AND a keepsake with Can'd Aid Christmas, Volume 1 digital download code.

World-class music, exceptional food, premium drinks, and the knowledge that you're directly supporting Can'd Aid’s Instruments for Change - getting new instruments and music teacher grants into under-funded schools and music programs nationwide. A portion of proceeds will also benefit local kids through Firehouse Community Art Center. Please use Uber/Lyft - very limited parking.
