On Saturday, August 29, four-time GRAMMY® nominee
Matthew West will appear in Birmingham, Alabama in front of thousands during the Restoring Unity event to perform his hit single "Do Something." Restoring Unity is a two-day event helmed by Glenn Beck which supports his non-profit organization, Mercury One.
When West appeared on Beck's radio show earlier this summer, pictured below, to talk about his brand new album,
Live Forever, the two made an instant connection. And during their visit, Beck soon realized that Matthew West was the artist and songwriter behind "Do Something," the very song that Beck wanted as the theme for his Mercury One event, Restoring Unity. Leading up to August 29, "Do Something" can be heard every day on Glenn Beck's TV show. To find out more about this very special event, please visit
