"With a roughly 70 percent cure rate among childhood cancers, we have come a long way in recent years in developing effective therapies for children and young adults with cancer. Our goal is to cure all kids with this devastating disease through cutting-edge research and world-class clinical care. I am grateful to the Kings of Leon and Platform One Entertainment for helping us at the University of Chicago Comer Children's Hospital toward this ambitious goal," says John Cunningham, MD, professor and section chief of pediatric hematology/oncology.

"The band is excited to play the House of Blues for such a worthy cause. We are all happy to support Dare 2 Dream's mission to save the lives of countless children," says Kings of Leon lead singer Caleb Followill.
