Eddie Vedder and Post Malone combined their musical talents for a heartfelt cause, captivating an audience with a duet of the Pearl Jam classic, “Better Man.” This performance was part of the second annual Reportin’ for Duty event, dedicated to the late actor Leslie Jordan, and held at the Humble Baron within the Nearest Green Distillery in Shelbyville, Tennessee. The event successfully raised over $1 million for the EB Research Partnership.
The duo’s live rendition, accompanied by acoustic guitars and shared vocals, was not only a highlight of the evening but also a powerful moment shared between two generations of musicians. The event boasted an impressive lineup of artists, including The War and Treaty, Jelly Roll, Ruby Amanfu, Jake Wesley Rogers, and Dan Spencer, all united for this vital cause.
Eddie Vedder, expressing his feelings about the event, highlighted the emotional and inspiring atmosphere, acknowledging the impact of coming together for such a significant purpose. Post Malone, reflecting on the collaboration, praised Vedder’s influence as a musician and a philanthropist, expressing gratitude for being introduced to the EB Research Partnership community.
Founded in 2010 by Eddie and Jill Vedder, along with parents facing the challenges of Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB), the EB Research Partnership strives to find a cure for this life-threatening genetic condition characterized by extremely fragile skin. The Vedders envision finding a cure by 2030, a goal supported by the funds and awareness raised by events like the Reportin’ for Duty benefit.
This collaboration between Vedder and Malone is a testament to the power of music in rallying support for critical causes, showcasing the ability of artists to lead with compassion and inspire actionable change.
