On Saturday, January 30, Killer Mike, Vampire Weekend and Foster the People will perform at the University of Iowa Field House (via SPIN). The Red Hot Chili Peppers will pull headlining duty in Los Angeles on Feb. 5, when they perform at The Theatre at Ace Hotel.
Both events are different geographical versions of the popular “Brooklyn is Berning” benefit held in early January.
This isn’t Killer Mike’s first time supporting Sanders. The rapper introduced Sanders before an Atlanta rally on Nov. 23. He’s been an outspoken fan of the candidate since Sanders announced his candidacy for president.
