Dustin Kensrue of Thrice, Jon Foreman of Switchfoot, Chris Conley of Saves The Day and Jim Ward of Sparta/Sleepercar will be performing an acoustic benefit show for the Invisible Children charity group.

On December 19th, they will be helping to raise money and awareness for the group which provides education and economic relief to war-torn northern Uganda, The show will take place at Hollywood's legendary Troubadour club. Along with the performances, the organizers promise multiple auctions for limited-edition and
one-of-a-kind band paraphernalia including a Thrice backdrop from
previous tours, Riley Breckenridge's drumset, hand painted guitars
from Circa Survive, miscellaneous equipment used by Fall Out Boy, and
more to come.

Invisible Children started in 2005 with a documentary film about
children being abducted and forced to fight as soldiers for a rebel
army in northern Uganda. The film, now seen by over 3 million people
worldwide, has inspired a global movement of artists, musicians, and
activists committed to using their time, talent and money to help end
the 22-year war. Throughout the year, Invisible Children tours with
bands like Thrice and Fall Out Boy to continue spreading the word and
getting people involved.
