Grammy nominated alt-rock group Big Thief has dropped a surprise EP of unreleased tracks to benefit wildfire relief after the devastation in Los Angeles. “Our hearts are broken for everyone affected by the fires in California,” the band said in a statement about the project, called Passional Relations. “Our hope is that these contributions will not only help address the crucial and immediate needs of affected communities but also help sustain the work, identity, and culture of the artists within them.”
According to the band’s website, most of the proceeds will go to the PLUS1LA Fires Fund, “which directly supports organizations working on the ground to address critical needs like housing, education, animal welfare, and more.” Everything else “will go directly to local musicians, artists and community members who need extra support during this time.” Passional Relations is available for purchase directly from Big Thief’s webstore.
