JustoMobbin (CANCER SUCKS headliner)
“My mother was diagnosed with breast cancer mid 2024. As it started off stage, it grew rapidly and spread to her liver making it stage 4, during this time she’s been out of work and bills are starting to roll in,” said concert headliner, JustoMobbin. “I’m not only doing this event to raise money for my mother, but also spreading awareness about breast cancer and cancer in itself.”

Advance tickets are on sale now on at asylumTix for $15 and will be $20 at the door on the day of the concert.
