Charlie Overbey & Vanessa Dingwell are no strangers to using their platforms for fundraising and stepping up to help a community in need. During the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, Lone Hawk Hats & Honeywood Vintage, with the help of their celebrity clientele, raised over $100,000 through a live social media auction for Navajo Nation COVID-19 relief, benefiting the Navajo Nation via The United Natives Foundation. That same year, Overbey also recorded the single "Ode To John Prine" for Save Our Stages with members of Tom Petty, the Rolling Stones, Foo Fighters, Guitarist Jimmy Vivino, Singer LP, and his daughter, Katie Overbey.

In addition to the single + video, a signed guitar and signed t-shirt from nearly all of the performers on "We Are LA!" is available to bid on, with proceeds benefiting Sweet Relief Musicians Fund. The auction will run from January 7 at 10am ET, and will end on January 18 at 10pm ET.
