When singer/songwriter Kelly Buchanan suffered a brain injury during a street-hockey game earlier this year, it turned her life upside-down. Friends and supporters have come together for this benefit show to raise funds for Buchanan's health expenses and continued recuperation. Fountains of Wayne perform a full-band set, while members of Nada Surf and Spin Doctors frontman Chris Barron contribute acoustic peformances. Buchanan herself still isn't up to performing yet, but all of the acts (including an "all-star band featuring special guests") include her compositions in their sets, giving them the airing they deserve.
