Band Together’s 2019 Main Event concert was shortened on Saturday, June 1, due to health issues affecting Paul Janeway, lead singer for St. Paul and the Broken Bones.

In a statement Monday, the nonprofit announced that the show would be rescheduled for Thursday, Aug. 29, at Red Hat Amphitheater. Tickets for the originally scheduled show will be honored at the new date.

Launched in 2001, Band Together has witnessed the synergistic effect of live music and philanthropy, a strategy which has helped the nonprofit raise more than $9 million for Triangle organizations. It has become the largest annual charitable music event in the Southeast.

On Saturday, the nonprofit presented a ceremonial check to the Inter-Faith Food Shuttle, an organization that distributes 6 million pounds of food each year to seven counties in North Carolina to fight hunger. Band Together met its 2019 goal to raise $1 million for the Child Food Hub, a 7,000-square-foot facility in Durham, which opened last year. This new space will enable the Backpack Buddies program to grow and school food pantries to expand.

At Saturday’s shortened concert, legendary reggae group Toots and the Maytals performed. The Broken Bones also took the stage for an instrumental set.
