The Barney & Barney Foundation announced today that popular recording artist Kelley James will return to headline its annual Rock The Foundation fundraising concert at the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club in San Diego on September 19, 2013.

The Barney & Barney Foundation, established in 2009 by Barney & Barney, LLC, the largest, independent insurance brokerage in California, donates proceeds from Rock The Foundation to nonprofit organizations in San Diego, Orange County and the San Francisco Bay Area.

In January, James performed for a benefit concert that included current and former Major League Baseball players Barry Zito, Huston Street, Pablo Sandoval, Ryan Braun and Eric Byrnes.
