In 2009, Crosby and Nash hosted a benefit concert for Five Acres Grace Center, raising funds for its domestic violence prevention program. As a duo, the longtime creative partners bring out the best in each other, yet their distinct and complementary styles balance an equation that delivers a seamless and inspiring musical whole. As the duo carries their legacy of timeless songwriting, indelible vocals and peerless harmonies into the future, Crosby and Nash are committed to helping raise funds for Five Acres’ vital services for children and families across Southern California.

 

“I have been so lucky in my life and been given many opportunities to be able to 'give back,’ said Graham Nash. “Working on behalf of Five Acres is just such a wonderful opportunity. It will be a pleasure for David Crosby and I to help and keep life moving forward.”

 

Over its 125 year history, Five Acres has been caring for children in need, connecting them with safe, loving families and strengthening families for long-term success. For more information about this exclusive event, visit www.fiveacres.org or contact Jill Hawkins at jill@mhpevents.com or 626-791-1125, ext. 1.
