At the second show of Dan’s Tunes‘s livestream coverage, Heather Edgley and Public Pool filled out the lineup at the High Dive. Edgley and company celebrated the release of their EP, Losing My Mind, earlier that day after rescheduling the original release due to COVID-19. The stream also featured singer-songwriter Bug Hunter, whose set was recorded previously.

All proceeds from the show went to Color of Change, a nonprofit organization that works to empower Black people and communities. Click through the photos below for the best moments of the sets.
