Billy Talent will host a benefit concert to support victims of the deadly shooting in Toronto’s Greektown neighbourhood.

The band will join fellow Canadian musicians City and Colour, Pup and a number of other unannounced artists to play the Toronto Together fundraiser at the Danforth Music Hall on August 11.

The venue is steps away from the scene of a horrific rampage in which a gunman opened fire into restaurants and patios along Danforth Avenue. The shooting killed an 18-year-old woman and a 10-year-old girl and injured 13 others.

Proceeds from the concert, which will take place during the bustling Taste of the Danforth food festival, will be donated to the #TorontoStrong fund.

Tickets will be limited to two per person and go on sale for $50 each on Wednesday. They are available through the Toronto Together website.
