2026 Layne Staley Tribute East [Boston]

Layne Staley Tribute East returns following a powerful inaugural year as a nonprofit concert honoring the legacies of Layne Staley and Mike Starr while raising awareness and support for those affected by addiction. Modeled after the long-running Seattle Layne Staley Tribute, now in its 24th year, this event carries that legacy forward on the East Coast through an unforgettable night of music, remembrance, and purpose.
More than a concert, Layne Staley Tribute East is a mission-driven experience bringing together musicians and fans to celebrate the music, the voice, and the impact of Layne and Mike. Built on authenticity, community, and deep respect for the legacy it represents, the show transforms remembrance into action.
Proceeds will support musicians struggling with fentanyl and opioid addiction and provide resources for their families through donations to the Layne Staley Memorial Fund via Therapeutic Health Services (THS) in Seattle and the CASPAR Men’s Recovery Home in Somerville, MA.
