Dan Reynolds alternately belted out powerful songs with Imagine Dragons, went out into the audience to connect with concert goers, and wiped tears from his face as he talked about very personal things at LoveLoud Festival. Dan cried as he showed the audience a ring he’s worn since childhood to remember a friend who died as a result of religious guilt.
Dan also remarked about how his mother was in the audience and she had taught him to do the right thing.
The concert met its goal to raise one million dollars to help LGBTQ youth.

I’m proud of Dan for being courageous enough to raise his voice and help people feel understanding, and unconditional love, and acceptance.
Dan has said he will continue the campaign until the day it is no longer needed.
