Big Love Benefit Concerts is a production entity that raises funds for charitable organizations that serve, educate, and empower people in crisis. Born from the song Big Love, Big Love Benefit Concerts was created by healing artist, teacher, and singer-songwriter Lauren Monroe with her husband, legendary drummer Rick Allen after 20 years of serving communities through Raven Drum Foundation. Their outreach and healing events to empower people through music have touched lives around the world and is needed now more than ever.
Big Love Benefit Concerts exists to create and present world-class entertainment and healing experiences through music to raise awareness and financial support for people suffering. We produce concerts with corporate sponsors, generous donors, and fundraising initiatives backed by celebrity contributors and partners.
At a time when the music industry was reeling from the loss of touring and live performance, leaving career musicians and industry workers to face unprecedented loss of income, the first Big Love Benefit Concert aired as a global virtual show with proceeds benefiting charitable partner Sweet Relief Musicians Fund, which provides financial assistance to musicians in need. Appearances by Rick Allen, Lauren Monroe, Wynonna Judd, Billy Idol, Bret Michaels, Matt Sorum, Allman Betts, and others resulted in an extraordinary concert. The Big Love EP, featuring the BIG LOVE VIDEO by Lauren Monroe, was released over the summer during the first Covid-19 lockdowns, performed at New York Fashion Week 2020, and is a significant track on “Under the Wolf Moon” LP.
Big Love Benefit Concerts continued their contribution with a show benefiting organizations serving Veterans. Over Veterans Day weekend 2021, Lauren Monroe and the Big Love Band with special guest Rick Allen performed with Tammi Brown & the Big Love Choir in a sold-out show in front of an audience of Veterans, supporters, and music lovers. The event raised awareness and funds for charities providing services to Veterans on the Monterey Peninsula – Veterans Transition Center of Monterey County, Veterans Healing Veterans from the Inside Out, and Raven Drum Foundation.
