Common and the National have been announced for Show Up!, a free concert hosted by Planned Parenthood and All Access that will serve as a “call to action for supporters of reproductive freedom to take action wherever they are.” The event will take place at the 9:30 Club in Washington D.C. on January 19, the night before Inauguration Day, and promises “more special guests” to be announced in the upcoming days. While the event is free, tickets are required for entry; tickets are not available for purchase, but Planned Parenthood and the 13 organizations that comprise the All Access coalition each have an allocation to distribute.

On the night of Inauguration Day, D.C.’s Black Cat will host its own benefit concert. The event is called NO THANKS: A Night of Anti-Fascist Sound Resistance in the Capital of the USA, and includes performances by Priests, Waxahatchee, Sadie Dupuis (of Speedy Ortiz), Flasher, and more. Black Cat’s show will benefit Casa Ruby and ONE DC. Tickets are available here.
