Turnstile Performs at Washington Monument

Turnstile, a Baltimore hardcore group, performed a free show at the Washington Monument in Washington, D.C. on Saturday, October 24, as reported by Billboard. The show was part of a human rights fundraiser and drew 60,000 fans to the nation's capital.

The event, co-hosted by Human Concern International, aimed to raise funds for humanitarian efforts in Palestine, Sudan, and Lebanon. Before the show, the global director of Human Concern International announced that the event had already earned $150,000, surpassing the initial goal of $100,000.

The 75-minute show featured a 19-track setlist, including songs like 'Birds,' 'Endless,' and 'T.L.C. (Turnstile Love Connection).' The performance was also notable for being the final gig on the North American tour in support of their Never Enough album.

Turnstile's singer, Brendan Yates, led the crowd in chants of 'Free Palestine!', 'Free Sudan!', and 'Free Lebanon!' during the show. The event was a landmark for the group, whose Maryland-bred singer is a practical native of the nation's capital.

This performance matters to listeners because it showcases the power of music to bring people together and support important social causes.
