Sheryl Crow, Keith Urban, Bailey Zimmerman and other artists will join the Concert for Carolina lineup.
The benefit concert features headliners Luke Combs, Eric Church, Billy Strings and James Taylor. ESPN’s Marty Smith and Barstool Sports’ Caleb Pressley are slated to host the event. All proceeds will support relief efforts following the devastation caused by Hurricane Helene. Crow said “it was a no brainer,” when Church, who shared the updated lineup on his Instagram story on Wednesday (October 9, along with Combs), invited her to be part of the event.
Combs said in an interview on Good Morning America that fellow North Carolina-born country star Church “was the first guy I called,” as he watched the news and saw the aftermath of ht storm in his home state. “I know how much our state means to him and to myself, and I knew that he would be willing to do whatever it took to help out.” They announced Concert for Carolina earlier this week. Church also released “Darkest Hour,” his first solo release in more than three years, and signed over publishing royalties to support those impacted by the hurricane. He told iHeartCountry, “I’ve come running. We’re on our way.”
Concert for Carolina will take place on Saturday, October 26 at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, North Carolina. Concert for Carolina tickets will be available on Thursday (October 10) at 10 a.m. ET.
