City and Colour and Barenaked Ladies will headline Hayden's fifth annual Dream Serenade concert to benefit the Beverley Street School and other special needs related organizations around Toronto.


Taking place Nov. 17 at Roy Thompson Hall in Toronto, the feel-good concert will also feature Rural Alberta Advantage, Owen Pallett, Hayden, Weaves, Iskwé and "surprise special guests."

Created by veteran indie rocker Hayden Desser and his wife, production designer Christie Greyerbiehl, the annual Dream Serenade event gathers together a who's who of Canadian indie rock (and sometimes international) talent for the special one-night event. Past performers have included the likes of Feist, Gord Downie, Broken Social Scene, Sarah Harmer and Sloan.
