Starting with a stripped-down acoustic performance by DeGraw, Stageit will connect you with artists performing to raise funds for Hurricane Sandy victims through Nov. 28. In planning the live webcasts, Stageit asked the artists where they would like to perform as well as which charity or charities they would like to help out.

Here’s the schedule. All times are EST.
