Don Henley has assembled a roster of high-powered female artists to perform at November’s Stormy Weather 2002 benefit for Walden Woods.
The event, which takes place Nov. 13 at the Wiltern in Los Angeles, will feature Michelle Branch, Paula Cole, Deborah Cox, Sheryl Crow, Norah Jones, Reba McEntire, Joni Mitchell, Stevie Nicks, Susan Tedeschi and Trisha Yearwood, according to organizers. The 64-piece El Nino Orchestra will back the performers.
Henley is the event’s executive producer, a role he also held for a similar benefit concert in 1998. Proceeds from the event will benefit the Henley-founded Walden Woods Project and the Thoreau Institute at Walden Woods.
Henley founded the Walden Woods Project in 1990. The organization’s mission is to “protect land of ecological and historic significance surrounding Walden Pond, the famed retreat of author/philosopher Henry D. Thoreau; and to support the Thoreau Institute at Walden Woods and its educational initiatives related to the study of the environment and the humanities,” according to the Henley-penned mission statement posted at the organization’s official website.
Tickets for the Stormy Weather 2002 event are available through Ticketmaster.
