Rodrigo has said that Daisy Chain Fields was inspired by McLachlan's '90s festival Lilith Fair, which celebrated women in music at the time. She wanted to bring that feeling back. The new event is scheduled for August 29 at Great Park in Irvine, California. Proceeds from the festival will go to charities that are dedicated to advancing and advocating for women and girls.
"Lilith Fair was a huge inspiration in me starting this festival, Daisy Chain Fields," Rodrigo told ABC News' Diane Sawyer on Tuesday, June 23, on Good Morning America. "And actually, the first person that I called when I decided that I wanted to do this festival was Sarah McLachlan."

She added that McLachlan "is a total trailblazer and an incredible artist and a friend, and she's actually going to sing at the festival with me too, which is really exciting and a big honor for me."
She also said that "all of the incredible artists who are on the bill are doing it for free for charity," so it's truly a labor of love.
