One805 has announced that Pink and Dallas Green (City and Color) will perform as the duo You + Me at the One805LIVE! event, Sept. 20 at actor Kevin Costner’s property in Carpinteria.
One805LIVE! is a benefit show for first responders.
“We are absolutely thrilled that Pink and Dallas Green have agreed to perform at One805LIVE! This year” said Kirsten Cavendish Weston-Smith, CEO of One805.
“We already have the legendary Kenny Loggins and his band, and Alan Parsons is music director, and will perform, so this is shaping up to once again be an extraordinary event,” Weston-Smith said.
Last year, One805LIVE! was headlined by Maroon 5, and featured a surprise appearance by John Fogerty of Creedence Clearwater Revival, raising some $800,000 for Santa Barbara County first responders.
This year there will be a few changes designed to improve the experience for guests.
“This year we are looking at several ways to make this event even better,” said Richard Weston-Smith, co-founder/COO of One805. “There will be fewer cabanas, but they will be 40 feet closer to the stage, and all obstructions to the view have been removed.
“Food service will be dramatically improved, and the much-loved VIP Club layout of 2022 is back, with the VIP tent and club-style lounge seating, as well as a few select velvet rope tables.”
The arrival and departure will be revised, with a second gate, better traffic flow, additional buses and a full crowd control team to ensure a comfortable and orderly exit, Richard Weston-Smith said.
“We learn more every year, and we strive to improve,” he said. “It always takes longer than we would like to leave an event, as anyone who has been to So-Fi Stadium or the Hollywood Bowl knows, but we have plans to make it the best it can be – possibly even fun.”
