Hosted last night, February 5, in Los Angeles, CA, the G*VE A F*CK Benefit For LA Wildfire Relief 2025 featured a slew of impressive talent to raise funds to aid those affected by the ongoing wildfires that began in January. Actor John C. Reilly took the stage as the evening’s emcee, setting the tone for a night of unforgettable performances. Among the standout acts was Paramore’s frontwoman Hayley Williams, who joined a star-studded roster including St. Vincent, FINNEAS, Fred Armisen, Lucy Dacus, and The Linda Lindas, among others.

Williams, who had already made a surprise appearance earlier in the night, later took the stage alongside Failure frontman Ken Andrews for a stirring two-song set. The duo delivered a mesmerizing rendition of Failure’s “Daylight,” the haunting closing track from the band’s 1996 cult classic Fantastic Planet. Watch a clip of their performance below.

Additionally, the pair put on a mesmerizing performance of Björk’s “All Is Full Of Love.” The track appeared on her 1997 record, Homogenic. Watch a clip of their “All Is Full Of Love” cover performance below.

Fans in attendance were also treated to what can only be described as the greatest supergroup moment. Williams joined Rilo Kiley’s Jenny Lewis and Pierre de Reeder, along with MUNA’s Katie Gavin, to perform “Let Me Back In,” which served as a love letter to Los Angeles. 

Lewis, ever the showwoman, made a grand entrance dressed as a Girl Scout, playfully tossing Girl Scout cookies into the crowd before launching into the song—a fittingly nostalgic and heartfelt tribute. Watch the performance below.
