Each year, Jack Antonoff and his sister Rachel Antonoff host a talent show to raise money for their charitable organization The Ally Coalition, which supports LGBTQ+ youth. Because of the pandemic, this year’s event took place virtually, with performance from the likes of St. Vincent, Hayley Williams, Sleater-Kinney, Lana Del Rey, Spoon, The Chicks, and more.
Among the notable moments: Hayley Williams covered Massive Attack’s “Teardrop” in her bathrobe; St. Vincent’s Annie Clark sang The Beatles’ “Martha My Dear”; and Lana Del Rey crooned “Silent Night”.
The evening also saw Maggie Rogers play “Blood Ballet”, one of the rarities included on her new archival collection, and Clairo covered Norah Jones’ “Sunrise”. Super producer Jack Antonoff also took a moment in the spotlight and performed “this is me trying” from Taylor Swift’s folklore, which he himself co-produced.
Watch recordings of these various performances below.
