In addition to that Haiti fundraising telethon tonight and the Radiohead benefit we already told you about, word now arrives via Brooklyn Vegan that another rapidly-assembled benefit will be taking place this weekend. The Brooklyn-based music blog, in conjunction with Bowery Presents, is putting on "A Night of Comedy and Music to Benefit Haiti."

It takes place Saturday night (that's tomorrow, Jan. 23) at the Music Hall of Williamsburg starting at 8 pm. It will feature performances by Zach Galifianakis, Britt Daniel (of Spoon), Justin Vernon (Bon Iver), St. Vincent, Janeane Garofalo, Wyatt Cenac (of the Daily Show), the live debut of John Shade (ex Dave Godowsky) and "possibly more TBA."

Go to the Brooklyn Vegan site for more details, including ticketing info; tickets went on sale today at noon. According to the site, "100% of the proceeds will be split between an orphanage in Haiti (that Zach chose) and the Red Cross."

Incidentally, Pitchfork has a nice roundup of other goings-on around the world in relation to Haitian benefits. You can check out their report here.
