Shine Out in the Wild Kindness: A Tribute to David Berman & Silver Jews

In August 2019, David Berman, the wildly inventive and influential musician from Silver Jews took his own life at the age of 52. The outpouring of grief, support, and memorials was immediate and widespread, generating tribute albums and performances from the likes of Galaxie 500, Stephen Malkmus, and more. In Pittsburgh, you can celebrate Berman's life and work at Shine Out In The Wild Kindness (a line from the Silver Jews' song "The Wild Kindness") at Club Cafe. Performers include Sara Renberg, Swampwalk, Glam Hand, The Mushrats, and more. All proceeds benefit Steel Smiling, a mental health support organization focused on Black neighborhoods in Pittsburgh.
