  • Do They Know It's Christmas?, (1984) a Single for Famine Relief in Ethiopia 1 We Are the World - Single Released in May 1985
    Do They Know It's Christmas?, (1984) a single for famine relief in Ethiopia 1 We Are The World - single released in May 1985 An worldwide audience estimated at 1.5 billion watched the 16 hour concert. The event raised almost 80 million dollars for famine relieve. The performers played for free. 2 Headliners included: Eric Clapton The Temptations Paul McCartney The Pretenders Phil Collins U2 The Who The Cars Queen Neil Young Madonna Sting Run-DMC Elton John Bob Dylan David Bowie Rod Stewart Mick Jagger Tom Petty Tina Turner The Female Rock Explosion Between 1995 and 1997 female artists come to the forefront. The success of Alanis Morissette’s Jagged Litlle Pill (1995) fueled an interest in other female artists and songwriters. In 1997 Sarah McLachlan, Paula Cole, Liz Phair, Shawn Colvin, Meredith Brooks, and others performed at Lilith Fair, a festival showcasing female artists. 3 Alanis Morissette Sarah McLachlan Paula Cole Meredith Brooks The Beginnings of Alternative Rock The short-lived New York rock style called No-wave maximized its non- commercial, industrial noise elements to produce forward looking bands such Sonic Youth (1981). Sonic Youth was particularly influential for creating an underpinning for 1990’s alternative rock. In 1991 Sonic Youth toured with then relatively unknown Nirvana. Throughout the mid 1980’s a cult following occurred centering on post-Velvet Underground influenced bands such as Joy Division and Thin White Rope There had also been interest in unifying elements of Metal, Funk, and Post- Punk with this new aesthetic. One of the first successful bands to achieve this goal was Jane’s Addiction.
