As families continue to rebuild in the wake of Hurricane Sandy, XPN Welcomes the Red Cross’ benefit concert tonight at World Cafe Live.  With sets by The Karmic Repair Company, The Mighty Manatees, Turnips, Miles Thompson Band, Blue Wave Ramblers, Mike Greer and Co. and Whiskeyhickon Boys, the Benefit will raise funds for East Coast residents still feeling the effects of the storm with music provided by local Americana, bluegrass, folk and reggae bands.  Tickets and information for the concert can be found here; watch Whiskeyhickon Boys perform “Always Raining” live below.
