This past July, the world lost a musical icon after it was announced that Linkin Park frontman Chester Bennington had committed suicide. The veteran rock band, who are now left with five of their remaining members, are currently gearing up to celebrate the life of the late singer with a special tribute concert which will feature several other musicians and former collaborators. And the latest act to announce his participation is none other than one of dance music’s finest, Zedd. As revealed by the German producer/DJ on Twitter yesterday, he will be joining Linkin Park on drums for a special live performance in honor of Chester.
The special tribute concert which is set to take place on October 27 at Hollywood Bowl, CA will also witness the likes of Avenged Sevenfold’s M. Shadows and Synyster Gates, Korn’s Jonathan Davis, System of a Down’s Daron Malakian, Shavo Odadjian and John Dolmayan, the members of Blink-182, Bring Me the Horizon’s Oli Sykes, Yellowcard’s Ryan Key, Machine Gun Kelly and Kiiara alongside many more. All the proceedings from the show will go to Music For Relief’s One More Light Fund in memory of Chester.
