Eddie Vedder made a surprise appearance at a charity event benefitting The Who's Teen Cancer America organization.

In the fan-shot video below, Vedder joined Roger Daltrey and Pete Townshend on stage and performed The Who classic "The Seeker."

Teen Cancer America is an offshoot of the U.K.-based Teenage Cancer Trust. Both organizations were founded by The Who and provide support and aid to teens and other young people who've been diagnosed with cancer.

Vedder is among a diverse list of celebrity ambassadors for Teen Cancer America. Along with Vedder on that list are Robert Plant, Rob and Sheri Moon Zombie, Joan Jett, Hockey Hall of Famer Chris Chelios and more.

Eddie Vedder – His 28 Best Songs, Outside Of Pearl Jam

Eddie Vedder hasn't been as prolific with side-projects as his Pearl Jam bandmates: Stone Gossard used to have a band called Brad (R.I.P. Shawn Smith) and currently is a band called Painted Shield; he's also done solo records. Jeff Ament has been part of Three Fish, Tres Mtns. and RNDM, and has put out a bunch of solo songs. Matt Cameron's discography includes a number of projects including Hater, Wellwater Conspiracy, Harrybu McCage and Ten Commandos. Mike McCready, meanwhile, has been a member of Mad Season and the Rockfords.

Vedder, meanwhile, has just three solo albums to his name, so far: but it turns out that he has a pretty impressive discography outside of the band. He's frequently contributed songs to various artist compilations, done one-off singles, and collaborated with other artists. Here are some of our favorite Vedder moments outside of Pearl Jam.
