CNN has reached out to a representative for Matthews for comment. The FireAid benefit concert, a music event set up to aid the relief efforts following the deadly and devastating Los Angeles wildfires, is set to take place on Thursday at the Kia Forum and the new Intuit Dome, both located in the LA city of Inglewood.

The Grammy Award-winning band shared that they had to pull out of two shows due to a 'critical illness' in the family.

Dave Matthews will no longer perform at FireAid, the star-studded benefit concert organized for Los Angeles-area wildfire relief taking place Thursday.

DMB will perform May 27, 2025, at the Empower Federal Credit Union Amphitheater at Lakeview in Syracuse, plus two nights at the Broadview Stage at SPAC (Saratoga Performing Arts Center) in Saratoga Springs on July 18 and July 19. All three shows will begin at 7:30 p.m.
