Music, Friendship, and Funk Power Up Friendsgiving at The Iron Horse

This November, The Iron Horse turns up the volume on community with the Friendship Band Friendsgiving Fundraiser—a music-fueled party with a purpose. Two local favorites, The Friendship Band and Soul Magnets, will light up the stage to raise support for the performing arts at Whole Children™ and Milestones, programs of ServiceNet, where people with disabilities take center stage.

The Friendship Band unites musicians with and without disabilities in a shared celebration of music’s power to connect. Over the past ten years, they’ve built a loyal following with their mix of originals and covers, memorable collaborations with Yo La Tengo, and standout sets at Transformance at Look Park.

Joining them is Valley funk powerhouse Soul Magnets. With a horn-heavy nine-piece lineup and a set list that slides from funk classics to neo-soul originals, they’ve fired up crowds everywhere from the Green River Festival to The Drake and Millpond Live. If you’re ready to dance, Soul Magnets deliver.
