Sarah McLachlan Will Perform In Asbury Park For Mary’s Place

Three-time Grammy Award winning singer/songwriter Sarah McLachlan announced Monday that she will perform a benefit concert for women with cancer at the historic Paramount Theatre in Asbury Park. Also performing will be Grammy Award winning artist Patty Griffin.

The concert will take place for one night only on Saturday, July 28th, at 7 p.m. (doors opening at 6 p.m.). Proceeds of this benefit will support Mary’s Place by the Sea, a New Jersey- based respite home serving women with cancer from all over the country.

Sarah McLachlan is one of the most celebrated singer songwriters in entertainment with over 40 million albums sold worldwide. She has received three Grammy Awards and twelve Juno Awards over her career and was recently inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame.

At “An Intimate Evening of Music with Sarah McLachlan and Patty Griffin,” McLachlan fans will enjoy an acoustic-style, storytelling set that the artist is known and loved for. McLachlan is also known for her philanthropic efforts; she has raised millions of dollars for women’s charities through events like the Lilith Fair tour, and opened The Sarah McLachlan School of Music in 2002, providing top quality music instruction to at-risk and underserved children at no cost.

When announcing the benefit concert, McLachlan said of Mary’s Place by the Sea, “It’s a wonderful place for women to go when they’re healing from cancer. I hope you can join us!”

Griffin is known as one of the most consequential singer-songwriters of her generation, imbuing every effort with compassion and craft, uncanny perception and ever-increasing ingenuity. Her catalog of nine studio albums and two live collections have been praised by everyone from NPR to The NY Times.

Like McLachlan, she is dedicated to contributing to the well-being of the planet, showing compassion for the struggling among us via personal and public acts of charity including 2016’s “Use Your Voice" tour in conjunction with the League of Women Voters and the 2017 “Lampedusa Tour" supporting Refugee Relief Efforts and Education.
