The electronic artist will be donating 100 per cent of his tour proceeds to 14 different animal rights organizations Moby has announced the charities that will be receiving proceeds from his UK and European tour later this year. The electronic artist will embark on his first European tour in a decade this September to celebrate 25 years of his acclaimed fifth studio album ‘Play ‘, including a huge London show at The O2. Acclaimed soul-jazz singer-songwriter Lady Blackbird – who he recently collaborated with on his 2024 LP ‘Always Centered At Night’ and 2023’s ‘Resound NYC’ – will be joining him as a special guest on tour, serving as the opening act.
Moby previously shared that he would be donating all his profits from the shows to animal rights charities. Now, he has announced the 12 local charities and two global organisations who will be the beneficiaries of the proceeds. Along with financial support, Moby has also offered spaces at the venues for the organisations to sell merchandise and distribute information about their causes.
