Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Tom Jones To Neil Young’s Play Bridge School Concert

Neil and Pegi Young’s annual Bridge School concert has another top shelf list of acts for 2014 including Soundgarden, Pearl Jam and Sir Tom Jones.

One of the highlights of the San Francisco area’s fall music season every year is Neil and Pegi Young’s Bridge School Benefit to raise funds for their nonprofit organization that helps children with severe speech and physical ailments.

The benefit has been held every years since 1986, except for 1987, and normally draws a high-caliber list of rock, soul and pop artists. While the full list of performers is yet to be announced (there are always surprises), this year’s benefit already has a first-class lineup:

Neil Young
Pearl Jam
Soundgarden
Tom Jones
Florence + the Machine
Norah Jones (and her group Puss n Boots)
Band of Horses
Pegi Young and the Survivors

One of the most pleasant parts of the announcement was that both Neil and Pegi would appear and continue to support the organization. Neil recently filed for divorce, with the first hearing in December, and has been reportedly dating actress Daryl Hannah.

The 28th Annual Bridge School Benefit will be held October 25 and 26 at the Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, CA. Tickets go on sale next Friday (September 19).
