FODfest (Friends of Danny Festival) is Music In Common's flagship concert. FODfest honors the life of slain Wall St. Journal reporter, Daniel Pearl and features local musicians in a unique format that is part concert, part song swap, and part jam session. The unconventional format is a living demonstration of the power of music to connect people, generating a sense of community, hope, and healing and often serving as a call to action for individuals and communities to discover common ground.

FODfest concerts are free & open to the public and typically takes place each October as a registered event of Daniel Pearl World Music Days.
