06.25.20 Warren Haynes To Perform on Rolling Stone’s “In My Room” Presented By Gibson

Music fans now have the chance to make a charitable donation and walk away with a piece of rock ‘n’ roll history. WARREN has teamed with Gibson Gives--the charitable arm of Gibson guitars--to auction an autographed Les Paul Standard 50’s guitar on CharityBuzz.com, starting today, June 25 through July 9, HERE. WARREN has chosen to donate all proceeds from the auction of the Les Paul guitar to support the important work of the Equal Justice Initiative. Founded by Bryan Stevenson, a widely acclaimed public interest lawyer and bestselling author of Just Mercy, EJI is a private, 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that provides legal representation to people who have been illegally convicted, unfairly sentenced, or abused in state jails and prisons.

“I’m honored to partner with Rolling Stone and Gibson for this performance and auction and wanted to do something a little different- seeing as how we all have a little more time on our hands- so instead of just doing ‘solo acoustic’ songs I thought I would accompany myself as well as incorporate a couple of friends. I chose these songs based on what we’re all going through together” says WARREN HAYNES. “I chose the Equal Justice Initiative because all citizens deserve equal justice and the fact that there even needs to be an organization dedicated to fighting for this illustrates how important the work they do is.”
