This year’s Music for a Cause event will take place on Wednesday, June 5th at a beautiful estate on Warm Springs Avenue and will benefit Make-A-Wish Idaho. Come dance under the stars to groovy sets and enjoy delicious food, beverages, and desserts.  Make-A-Wish Idaho grants life-changing wishes, allowing a child who is critically ill to dream about what can be, rather than focusing on their illness. You can bring joy and strength to children and their families who are facing unimaginable diagnoses. All proceeds will go directly to Make-A-Wish Idaho. 

​

New this year, we would love to get the ball rolling and kick off the donation drive now!  Make A Wish Idaho referrals are at an all-time high, and more than 130 children in Idaho are waiting for their wishes. With your help, we can start granting them today. Our goal is to raise $40,000 before the concert.  Donations can be made directly to Make-A-Wish at Donate.  When making your donation, please be sure to indicate that you are donating to Music for a Cause. Our goal by the end of the concert is to have raised $100,000+.  By achieving this goal, we will be able to help the organization grant a minimum of 10 wishes to children and their families.

Featuring: Emily Braden

With Tom Jensen, Justin Nielsen and Special Guest Jake Stigers

This year we will feature Emily Braden, Boise-born, Harlem-honed vocalist, songwriter, and lyricist. Emily’s sound is an effortless blend of jazz and soul. She was the winner of New York City’s ‘Best of the Best’ Jazzmobile Vocal Competition and has been a celebrated name on NYC’s music scene for more than a decade. Braden’s vocals shine and soar with an uplifting message of love and resilience in dark times.
