The legacy of New Beginning 30 years later
If you’re a fan of Tracy Chapman, Give Me One Reason, or 90s singer-songwriter records, this is a rare behind-the-scenes look at one of the era’s most important albums.
The stars are aligning at The Moore tonight 🎸
This isn’t a typical concert. It’s a one-night-only collective of legends and rising voices standing together for one cause.
You already know the heavy hitters: the iconic @nancywilson of @heartofficial and the powerhouse duo @thebrentsmith & @zmyersofficial of @shinedown . But the magic of Amplify Courage goes even deeper.
Tonight is about discovery. It’s about being in the room when artists like @shainashepherdmusic , @madisenxoxoo , @caspiancoberly , @thebuckstein , @tommyragen take the stage to play the songs that shaped their own lives.
Why this show is different:
* The Setlist: These are songs hand-picked by the artists.
* The Vibe: Expect one-night-only collaborations.
* The Cause: Every note played supports Stand for Courage and our mission to end bullying.
When you join us tonight, you aren’t just a fan in the seats. You’re an ally for a young person who needs to know they aren’t alone.
Tonight (Sat. 4/4) • The Moore • 6p Doors• 7p Show

Amazing weekend of music with the Dismantlers Friday night, with Box of Rocks Saturday night, and then a Sunday morning session at @pacificstudiostacoma with @davidnyro . Tongue sticking out is a habit I somehow inherited from my wife and daughter 🤣
