B.C. rockers are joining forces to raise money for Variety - The Children's Charity.
Jerry Doucette is teaming up with four other local bands and putting on a concert at the Columbia Theatre to help raise money for kids who have special needs.
The concert is set for Saturday, Jan. 18.
This is the second year that Doucette and bandmate Ken Boychuk have pulled together a show.
Last year's took place at the Legion in Tsawwassen, but they're chosen the Columbia this year to bring the fun to a bigger audience.
"Jerry and I love to give back," Boychuk said in a press release. "It gives us such joy. We've been musicians forever, and we want to use our art to give."
Doucette shot to fame in 1977 with the platinum-selling album Mama Let Him Play.
Joining him in the fundraiser are the R&B Allstars, the Mojo Stars, the Simpson Brothers and Taylor Clarke.
Tickets are $40 and can be purchased online at www.thecolumbia.ca or by calling 604-522-4500.
Doors open at 6 p.m., and the show is set to start at 7 p.m.
