launched in 1986

RADD® (Recording Artists Against Drunk Driving), a 501 c3 nonprofit founded by DJs and other radio personalities, launched in 1986 with support from mega-stars including the cast of the 2004 RADD Anthem version of the Lennon-McCartney tune, Baby, You Can Drive My Car featuring music legends Paul McCartney, Phil Collins, Stevie Wonder, Little Richard and Julian Lennon, Los Lobos, Melissa Etheridge, Ringo Starr, Trisha Yearwood, and many more.
