| Description: |
Hillel at Virginia Tech presents the 15th Annual Daniel Pearl Music Day concert featuring the Plain White T's on Thursday, October 21, 2021. Plain White T's are two-time Grammy nominated band that began their life as emo-tinged pop-punkers, but it was a ballad that brought them stardom. "Hey There Delilah" turned into a smash hit in 2007, rocketing to the top of Billboard's charts and defining the group as a melodic mainstream group, yet their earliest records and subsequent albums showed how Plain White T's spent as much time playing highly charged punk-influenced rock as they did anthemic ballads. Plain White T's hail from the Chicago, Illinois suburb of Lombard.

Daniel Pearl Music Day is an international network of concerts that connects people through music. Daniel Pearl was a Jewish journalist and musician who was kidnapped and murdered in Pakistan in 2002. As he traveled the world, he connected with people through their shared love of music. Each year, we honor his memory through a series of international concerts that uses the universal love of music to encourage people of all backgrounds to come together to work towards a more humane world.
