Star-Studded Bubba Bash Returns for 2024 to Benefit Cedars-Sinai Hospital
This past January, YYNOT’s Bubba Bash raised over $100,000 for Cedars-Sinai Hospital in memory of late Rush drummer Neil Peart. Now the fundraising event is back for more.
Bubba Bash 2024 will be held January 6th at the Keswick Theatre in Glenside, Pennsylvania. YYNOT anchors the event, and YYNOT itself is anchored by bass whiz Tim Starace. They’ll be joined by a plethora of guest artists including returning performers Mike Portnoy (Dream Theater, The Winery Dogs), Frank Bello (Anthrax), Jason Bittner (Shadows Fall, Overkill), Jon Dinklage (Clockwork Angels string ensemble), Joe Bergamini (drum instructor, author), John Wesley (Vertical Horizon), and Seven Antonopoulos (Opiate for the Masses).
Joining the fold for 2024 will be Doobie Brothers drummer Ed Toth, percussionist Andrés Patrick Forero, Iron Christ bassist Rodney McG, keyboardist Allan Lobo, vocalist Dan Avidan, and entertainment personality Cathy Rankin, who will guest-host the evening.

Tickets for Bubba Bash 2024 are available via AXS but are moving quickly. Event organizers say that if you can’t get to the show, you can still participate by donating directly to Cedars-Sinai.
