Hosted by "The Office" cast member, Oscar Nunez and comedienne/actress Nikea Gamby-Turner, A Night of ONENESS, Sunday July 12, is slated as one of the final shows at the iconic House of Blues in Hollywood, which will be closing its doors at the end of this summer after 20 years as a vital part of the Los Angeles music scene. The benefit concert will support an emergency fund for Full-Circle Learning Preschool, which creates educational access for migrant families in Ventura County, CA, and Oneness' upcoming series of musical empowerment projects for youth in several locations nationwide including Los Angeles, CA, Baltimore, MD and Pine Ridge, S.D.

Silent auction features one-of-a-kind music memorabilia from legendary and iconic talents Michael Jackson, Janis Joplin, Carlos Santana, Alan Parsons and a special series of original artwork from young Baltimore muralists in addition to other unique items.

Musical performers include: reggae royalty Bambaata Marley bringing the Marley musical legacy to a new generation; American Idol favorite Allison Iraheta featuring her rocking band, Halo Circus; Grammy-winning producer KC Porter (Santana, Ricky Martin) debuting his pan-Latin band project "Cruzanderos"; atmospheric groove-rock power trio Heliotrope featuring former members of WAR and Tower of Power; soulful singer-songwriter and TED speaker Chris Pierce; multicultural LA band The Bricks, originally formed during a Oneness youth project; and introducing young and gifted pop vocalist Samantha Elizondo, performing her own songs as well as closing out the show with her full Mariachi band.

Oneness, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, is dedicated to the elimination of racism and the promotion of unity through music, the arts and education. Full-Circle Learning brings a strong academic and character-building foundation to children at special learning sites around the world.
This eclectic and unforgettable night of music will serve as a fitting farewell to a classic LA venue whose motto, "Unity In Diversity," couldn't be closer to the heart of Oneness' mission.
