He's doing that again this year, but since it's his 80th birthday, he's planning a bit more. Per Rolling Stone, Ringo's Big Birthday Show, a virtual charity concert, will hit YouTube on July 7 at 8 pm ET and will feature at-home performances and unearthed concert footage by Sheryl Crow, Gary Clark Jr., Shiela E, Ben Harper and Paul McCartney, among others.
The show will also include the debut of a new, guest-laden version of Starr’s 2017 song “Give More Love,” with Jackson Browne, Jeff Bridges, Elvis Costello, Willie Nelson, and others. The YouTube broadcast will benefit four charities: Black Lives Matter Global Network, The David Lynch Foundation, MusiCares, and WaterAid.
