(PR) In recognition of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Hard Rock Cafe Hollywood, CA will rock out for the fight against breast cancer. On Thursday, October 15, 2009, Hard Rock Cafe Hollywood, CA will host a live performance by singer/songwriter Pete Yorn, who recently released a collaborative album with actress/musician Scarlett Johansson entitled "The Break Up Album." The event will benefit the Noreen Fraser Foundation, an organization that uses educational and awareness campaigns to raise funds for translational cancer research aimed at developing new prevention methods, diagnostic tools and non-toxic therapies to treat women's cancers.
In addition, guests will also have the chance to bid on a Pink Epiphone guitar autographed by David Cook, Pit Bull and Pete Yorn. This stop is part of Hard Rock International's a month-long, PINKTOBER breast cancer awareness campaign.
