Back Yard Concert-Fundraiser to Help Those in Need

Residents and passersby on Lake Shore Drive this Saturday may notice the sounds of some acoustic rock tunes floating about in the air.  

The harmonies will be that of the Adam Ezra Group, an acoustic rock band based in Boston, which will be performing at the first-ever "Westwood Concert for a Cause" event. 

"They're very philanthropically minded,"  said Hillary Kohler, who is hosting the concert in her backyard on Lake Shore Drive.  

The event, which is 21 and older and B.Y.O.B., will kick off at 7 p.m. on Saturday and run until about 10 p.m. Those interested in attending should email Hillary Kohler at hdkohler@comcast.net.

Proceeds and donations will go to help families in Westwood with children currently in cancer treatment. 

"We don't want it to be an exclusive event," said Kohler, who set up a large, 40-foot by 40-foot tent for the fundraiser. "We want to invite the community."

While tickets are not being sold, there is a $5 cover, and anyone willing to contribute donations can do so by bringing extra cash or a check book. 

For those who cannot attend and wish to still make donations, checks can be made out to:
