Charity Concert Featuring Gang Of Youths, Tash Sultana & More To Be Live Streamed Tomorrow

It's been announced today that the Down To Earth bushfire and climate relief charity concert will be live streamed via YouTube. 

The concert is set to take place at Melbourne's Sidney Myer Music Bowl tomorrow from 2.30pm, with performances from the likes of Gang Of Youths, Tash Sultana, Angus & Julia Stone, Briggs, Thelma Plum, Jack River and Ruby Fields. 

"Throughout the bushfires crisis over the past few months, Australians have united -- and Down To Earth is yet another example of Aussies coming together to help those in need, as well as a moment to look to the future," said YouTube's Head of Music Content Partnerships (Australian, New Zealand and South East Asia) Ruuben van den Heuvel. 

"We're pleased to be able to support by enabling live streaming of this concert on YouTube, and take some of Australia's most beloved artists and their message to the world, a potential audience of billions."

It's also been announced that triple j's Bridget Hustwaite will host the event. 

Funds raised by the show will be donated to Red Cross and WIRES to provide funds for fire relief, as well as going to organisations including Emergency Leaders For Climate Action, Foundation For Rural & Regional Renewal and Firesticks Alliance Indigenous Corporation (Firesticks).

"Collectively, our hearts go out to the families who have lost loved ones, the firies who have put their lives on the line and continue to, and the communities across Australia suffering," reads a joint statement from the artists. 

"We hope to give you the greatest thing we can in this time of great need - our voices and our songs." 

"We believe a holistic response to fire relief and future protection is what the youth of Australia are calling for. As well as immediate fire relief, we value the long term needs of small communities, the knowledge of First Nations people, and the need for climate action."

All ticket sales, bar and merch profits to be donated to the organisations. 

The live stream will kick off from 2pm tomorrow, you can watch it below.
