Cincinnati, OH 3/19/2026 — Detroit alternative rock group Ethan Marc Band is bringing its community-first touring model to Cincinnati this March, uniting with local musicians and community leaders for a charity-driven concert focused on connection, care, and giving back.
The Cincinnati show is part of the band’s multi-city headlining tour surrounding SXSW, a run intentionally built around supporting the communities that host them. For this stop, a portion of proceeds will benefit Talbert House, a Cincinnati-based nonprofit dedicated to empowering individuals and families to live healthy, safe, and productive lives.
Talbert House operates an extensive network of services throughout Southwest Ohio focused on prevention, assessment, treatment, and reintegration for people of all ages. Talbert House empowers children, adults, and families to live healthy, safe, and productive lives through comprehensive addiction, housing, mental health, reintegration, and community care programs that meet the needs of our community.
“We believe music should do more than entertain,” says frontman Ethan Marc. “It can bring people together, strengthen communities, and support the people doing meaningful work on the ground.”
The charity concert will take place at Comet in Cincinnati, Ohio, featuring a headlining performance by Ethan Marc Band with local support from Starrannee and PBAJ. A portion of proceeds from the event will be donated directly to Talbert House to support its ongoing work in behavioral health, housing stability, and community care services.
Rooted in Detroit’s DIY music scene, Ethan Marc Band has seen firsthand how music can bring people together for a purpose. The band has previously hosted successful charity concerts in Detroit benefiting mental health organizations, raising funds while creating welcoming spaces where people felt seen, supported, and connected. This Cincinnati show continues that same mission of shared impact through art and community.
