Los Angeles, get ready for a night of rock, laughter, and generosity as the Middle Aged Dad Jam Band & Friends take over the Lodge Room on Tuesday, February 11, for the City of Angels Wildfires Benefit. This one-night-only event brings together an all-star lineup of musicians, comedians, and entertainers, all coming together for a cause—helping the communities impacted by the recent Los Angeles wildfires.

At the heart of the night is Middle Aged Dad Jam Band, the brainchild of comedians, filmmakers, and self-proclaimed “wannabe rockstars” Ken Marino and David Wain. What started as a group of old friends jamming out to classic rock and pop favorites has evolved into a touring sensation, selling out shows across the country. This time, they’re turning up the volume for charity, with 100% of proceeds going to the United Way of Greater Los Angeles Wildfire Response Fund, Pasadena Community Foundation, and Eaton Fire Relief and Recovery Fund.

But Marino and Wain aren’t coming alone. The night will feature appearances from a jaw-dropping list of special guests, including: "Weird Al" Yankovic, Rachel Bloom, Taran Killam, Lisa Gilroy, Jackie Tohn, Thomas Lennon, Michaela Watkins, Joe Lo Truglio, Moshe Kasher, Jeff Ross, Randall Park, Will Forte, Malin Akerman, and more.

With a mix of live music, stand-up, and surprise performances, this event promises to be equal parts rock show and comedy special—a pure, chaotic, and joyous celebration of LA’s creative community coming together for a cause.

With a lineup this stacked and a cause this important, expect tickets to sell fast. Whether you’re a fan of dad rock, improv comedy, or just want to support wildfire relief, this is a night you won’t want to miss.

Don’t just watch from the sidelines—join the jam, sing along, and be part of something bigger. See you at the Lodge Room!
