Singer-songwriter David Matthews is headlining a Obama administration-sponsored concert for the benefit of a Democratic congressional candidate involved in protests to stop the building of a controversial oil pipeline.
The “Turnaround: Arts Sings With Standing Rock” will feature performances by Matthews, Mic Jordan, Ledisi, DJ IZ, among other B-list celebrities.
A poster for the show states Oscar-nominated actress Alfre Woodard will serve as emcee along with Chase Iron Eyes, a member of Standing Rock Sioux and a Democratic candidate for North Dakota. It is slated to take place Tuesday, Oct. 11 near campsites set up to protest the Dakota Access Pipeline.
