Cody Simpson gets illuminated by blue lights as he performs at the 2011 Rock the Red Kettle event held at Universal CityWalk on Saturday night (December 17) in Universal City, Calif.

The 14-year-old Aussie musician joined Honor Society, Colbie Calliat, Hanson, and buddy Greyson Chance at the event which raises awareness for The Salvation Army’s Red Kettle Campaign, the oldest annual charitable fundraiser of its kind in the United States.

Money raised during the campaign helps the Army serve 30 million Americans in need with many programs including toys for kids, coats for the homeless and food for the hungry.

Just a few hours before, Cody hit up the studio with Justin Bieber! “good time in the studio with @justinbieber @iamjulkeyz @itsmattgraham @kennyhamilton. #2012 we’re coming,” he tweeted.
