On October 4 at New York City’s legendary Carnegie Hall, (RED) unites a world-class line up of artists for the special (RED)NIGHTS concert “ Hal Willner Presents: An Evening with Gavin Friday and Friends.” The star-studded evening will feature unique, collaborative performances by Adam Clayton, Bono, The Edge, Larry Mullen, Jr., Laurie Anderson, Antony, Elizabeth Ashley, Andrea Corr, Flo & Eddie, Joel Grey, Bill Frisell, Guggi, Scarlett Johansson, Courtney Love, Lydia Lunch, Patrick McCabe, Maria McKee, Shane MacGowan, Eric Mingus, JG Thirlwell, Martha Wainwright, Rufus Wainwright, Chloe Webb, plus special guests. The concert is a celebration of Friday, a childhood friend of Bono and an acclaimed singer, composer, painter and founding member of the gothic rock group The Virgin Prunes. The show is curated and produced by Willner, who has produced albums for Marianne Faithfull, Lou Reed, William S. Burroughs and Allen Ginsberg, yet is perhaps best known for assembling tribute albums and live events saluting Leonard Cohen, Thelonius Monk, Tim Buckley, Edgar Allen Poe and Marquis de Sade.

Tickets for the event are on sale now via Carnegie Charge at 212-247-7800, www.carnegiehall.org and the box office. As is the case with every (RED)NIGHTS show, a portion of the proceeds from the concert will go directly to the Global Fund (theglobalfund.org).
