Saddle up for a wild ride because the American Lung Association in South Carolina’s one-of-a-kind fundraiser is returning to Charleston Music Hall on Thursday, February 27. Lip Sync For Lungs Live Battle IX: Rhinestones & Rockstars, presented by Audi Charleston, funds lung disease research, local programs and services that save lives.
“This ain’t our first rodeo! We’ve hosted eight incredible Live Battles, and the Charleston community has showed us this grand and off-the-wall event is here to stay,” said Lori DeNicola, Lip Sync for Lungs event chair and owner of floral design studio, Petaloso. “Thanks to the support of our celebrity performers, local partners and attendees, we’re closing in on $1 million raised since our inaugural event. $1 million in funding is the equivalent of helping 10,000 kids quit vaping or supporting nearly 5.5 years of lung cancer research. Just think of all the great work we’ve funded, and will continue to fund, from this one event!”
This year’s Lip Sync For Lungs theme, “Rhinestones & Rockstars,” celebrates the genre-blending, country-crossover movement in the music industry. It’s classic country glitz and charm meets pop-rock spectacle. Think Dolly Parton, Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter, Lil Nas X, Shania Twain and Orville Peck.
The Lung Association is proud to serve our Lowcountry community and the nearly 775,000 South Carolinians living with lung disease and lung cancer. Our mission has never been more critical. We are researching new treatments and cures, tackling the youth vaping epidemic, protecting the air we all breathe and helping people live healthier lives. Your support fuels our mission and deepens our local impact.
