FODfest (Friends of Danny festival) is our flagship concert and the event from which Music in Common was born. FODfest honors the life of slain Wall St. Journal reporter, Daniel Pearl, and features local, regional, and national musicians in a unique format that is part concert, part song swap, and part jam session. FODfest is a living demonstration of the power of music to connect people, generating a sense of community, hope, and healing. FODfest concerts are free & open to the public and take place each October in honor of Danny's birthday.
