    A benefit show for the ages. Earlier this week, Luke Combs and Eric Church announced a massive benefit concert to support Hurricane Helene relief efforts called Concert for Carolina , which will take place on Saturday, October 26th at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, North Carolina. Of course, Luke and Eric are western North Carolina natives, with Luke growing up in Asheville and Eric in nearby Granite Falls. Both attended Appalachian State University, and got their start playing in the same bars around Boone. Billy Strings and James Taylor are also listed as headliners, and today, they announced additional artists for the lineup. Sheryl Crow, Keith Urban and Bailey Zimmerman are also slated to take the stage later this month:

Combs’ portion will be distributed between Samaritan’s Purse, Manna Food Bank and Second Harvest Food Bank of Northwest NC (all very legit, and great places to donate if you're wanting to make a personal donation as well). Church’s
    Chief Cares is focused on helping established charities and organizations that are well managed, organized and can expedite aid directly to the families affected by Hurricane Helene. It’s been beyond impressive the way that these two have stepped up for their home state, and Eric also released a song this past Friday called “Darkest Hour,” with all proceeds from it, forever, going to the people of North Carolina. I think we've all seen the heartbreaking devastation that has occurred in western North Carolina as a result of the massive storm, and this show will certainly do a lot of good for the people in the Tar Heel State. Additional artists are still to be announced, so stay tuned... "Darkest Hour" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DvIbu71_57o
