New Jersey rockers the Gaslight Anthem have designed two new t-shirts to help victims of Hurricane Sandy in their home state. All proceeds from sales of the shirts will be split between Move for Hunger's RebuildRecover campaign and Architecture for Humanity's Rebuild Seaside Pier effort.

The band is also set to broadcast their upcoming concert at New York City's Terminal 5 on AXS TV, and added that the company will make a donation that matches the amount raised through the t-shirt sales. The show airs on AXS on November 29th at 9:15 p.m. EST.

Since the hurricane, Gaslight Anthem have participated in several Sandy recovery efforts, including an appearance in a recent RebuildRecover PSA alongside Mick Fleetwood and the Avett Brothers. Also, the new video for their acoustic ballad "National Anthem" (from their latest album, Handwritten) is paired with powerful images of the devastation that Sandy wrought throughout New York and New Jersey.
