Prior to the global COVID-19 pandemic, one of LA’s more enduring recent holiday traditions was IHEARTCOMIX teaming up with Brownies & Lemonade for LA Gives Back. Benefitting a number of local charities dedicated to combating the homelessness crisis here in Los Angeles, LA Gives Back has previously taken over CatchOne club in Midtown Los Angeles and consistently delivered a holiday party for the ages. Now, after three years off, LA Gives Back is returning to CatchOne on Wednesday, December 20.
Despite having been off the past couple years after a virtual edition in 2020, this will actually be the sixth edition of LA Gives BACK. Originating back in 2016, past headliners have included Bonobo, TOKiMONSTA, Boys Noize, A-Trak, SNL’s Sarah Sherman, JPEGMafia, Louis The Child, Tim Heidecker & Weyes Blood, Eric André, Flying Lotus etc, and more who have played to a sold-out crowd. Every year, IHC mobilizes the LA creative community to raise crucial funds for local organizations that combat homelessness year round with 100% of profits going to Downtown Women’s Center, My Friend’s Place, and MásForMore.
“For Brownies & Lemonade, LA Gives Back is a very important annual event that we didn’t want to lose in our post-pandemic world. Bringing LA’s music scene together again, with a stellar lineup, to raise money for the homelessness crisis in our city is imperative and it always make the holidays actually feel like a season of giving. 
We’re excited for LAGB to return and become a tradition for a new generation of LA music fans, and hopefully it brings more awareness to this devastating human issue all-year round.” – B&L
