MuttNation, a 501c3 non-profit, has raised nearly $10 million to date on behalf of supporting animal adoption of shelter pets and their wellbeing, all across the nation.

“I wanted to do something special to celebrate MuttNation’s 15th anniversary and thought sharing an evening of great music with some great friends that will also feature lots of mutts would be about as much fun as anything I could imagine,” Lambert said in a press release.

“We’ll have an adoption event and lots of other activities — and just make it a big party," she added. "I hope everyone will come out and party with us.”
