Boogie T Will Play Charity Show To Support Victims Of New Orleans Terror Attack

Boogie T

Two New Orleans promoters are coming together to raise money for people impacted by the tragic New Year’s Day terror attack on Bourbon Street, with a special charity show headlined by Bayou bass star Boogie T.

The Louisiana-born experimental bass producer and DJ—real name Brock Thornton—will play Republic and ARORA NOLA’s “NOLA In Need” benefit show at ARORA NOLA tomorrow, Friday, January 10, alongside leading New Orleans bass artists sfam, Bawldy, and naada.

Bass heads from the Big Easy and beyond are invited to rally around a shared love for music to help the victims of the truck attack and their families. All proceeds will be donated to the New Orleans New Year’s Day Tragedy Fund, a response effort from the Greater New Orleans Foundation that provides financial assistance to those affected.

Fourteen people were killed and many injured when a man drove a pickup truck into a crowd gathered on Bourbon Street in the city’s famous French Quarter on New Year’s Day, the Associated Press reports. The attacker, a 42-year-old Army veteran who pledged allegiance to ISIS, was killed in a shootout with police, the FBI confirmed.

Tickets to “Republic and ARORA NOLA present NOLA In Need” are now available here. Those who can’t attend the show are still encouraged to donate relief funds to the Greater New Orleans Foundation here.
