Post Malone To Join Joe Walsh At VetsAid 2024

Joe Walsh and VetsAid have announced a forthcoming collaboration with Post Malone at this year’s benefit concert. The show, scheduled for November 11 at 7pm at UBS Arena in Belmont Park, NY, will feature the two iconic artists playing material from each of their respective catalogs. This year’s show marks the eighth annual edition of VetsAid which started in 2017 with a show at EagleBank Arena in Fairfax, VA. The two iconic artists will be joined by Eric Church, Toto and Kool & The Gang this year.

“VetsAid is for EVERYONE: fans of all ages, backgrounds and musical genres,” Walsh explains. “So who better to join the party than Posty – the man who can do it all? And do it so well?! Mix in the best of country with Eric, rock with Toto and funk with Kool and The Gang and you have a VetsAid for the ages. What better way to honor our veterans and their families this Veterans Day than with a night you will never forget?”

Walsh has also announced the grant recipients that will benefit from the proceeds of this year’s VetsAid. All of the groups are either based in New York or New Jersey or have committed to using these funds exclusively on the ground in New York or New Jersey. Large grant recipients include the Travis Manion Foundation, Fourblock, Hire Heroes Foundation, America’s VetDogs, Vets4Warriors, Our Military Kids, Foundation for Women Warriors, HunterSeven Foundation, and Merging Vets & Players.

Veterans and their wellbeing have always been important to Walsh, a Gold Star son himself whose father died while stationed on active duty on Okinawa when Walsh was not even two years old. His mission is to use this platform to raise funds and awareness for the still urgent and significant needs of our returning soldiers and their families. The establishment of VetsAid and this annual benefit concert is his way of giving back to those who have given so much in sacrifice for this country.

VetsAid 2023 took place in San Diego and featured performances by Jeff Lynne’s ELO, The Way on Drugs, the Flaming Lips, Lucius and special guest Stephen Stills.

Post Malone Plans Four Late Fall Shows Across New York

Global superstar Post Malone has announced his F-1 Trillion Tour, a momentous 21-show outing with stadium, festival, and amphitheater performances around the U.S., with four stops in New York State.

The New York native will play in his hometown of Syracuse, along with Saratoga Springs, Wantagh, and New York City, all in September.

The 9 times diamond-certified GRAMMY Award-nominated phenomenon, artist Post Malone regularly rewrites history, blurs boundaries, and incites internet-breaking conversation with every move. Emerging in 2015 with a genre-less brew that inspired a movement, he delivered the diamond-selling “Congratulations,” achieved back-to-back #1 debuts on the Billboard Top 200, received countless multi-Platinum certifications around the world, and smashed one record after another with his Hot 100-topping hits.

In 2022, he pushed boundaries again with his fourth full-length offering, Twelve Carat Toothache, which marked his fourth consecutive Top 5 bow on the Top 200. It also paved the way for his biggest headliner to date, The Twelve Carat Toothache Tour, taking over arenas for multiple dates in major cities throughout the year. He even scored “the highest-certified single in RIAA history” with the 17x-platinum “Sunflower (Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse),” netting the biggest single of his generation. In 2023, he garnered a GRAMMY Award nod in the category of “Best Pop Duo/Group Performance” for “I Like You (A Happier Song)” [with Doja Cat], marking his tenth career nomination in six years.

As of 2023, his catalog comprises the GRAMMY Award-nominated “rockstar” [feat. 21 Savage” (Diamond), “Sunflower (Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse)” [feat. Swae Lee] (2x Diamond), “I Fall Apart” (Diamond), “Psycho” [feat. Ty Dolla $ign] (Diamond), “White Iverson” (Diamond), “Better Now” (Diamond), and more. Not to mention, he sold out numerous arena tours and hosted and curated his own mega-popular Posty Fest in 2018 and 2019. It all started with his quintuple-platinum influential 2016 debut, Stoney. With records under his belt that will likely never be surpassed and a generation of artists and audiences worldwide under his spell, Post Malone simply doesn’t stop.
