Eddie and Jill Vedder have announced an online benefit streaming event in support of people and families affected by Epidermolysis bullosa, a rare genetic skin disorder also known as EB.

The virtual event, dubbed Venture into Cures, will air next Wednesday, November 18, at 8 p.m. ET. During the stream, the Pearl Jam frontman will perform two new solo songs: “Matter of Time” and “Say Hi.” Both tracks are inspired by the stories of EB families.
