The Avett Brothers, Chase Rice, Scotty McCreery & More Added To “Concert For Carolina” Lineup, Livestream Announced

Going to be an incredible night of music for an amazing cause... and now, everyone can watch it. Luke Combs and Eric Church are gearing up to perform at their massive Concert for Carolina benefit show aiding Hurricane Helene relief efforts, which is slated for Saturday, October 26th at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, North Carolina. Billy Strings and James Taylor will also headline the evening, and Keith Urban, Billy Strings and Bailey Zimmerman were also recently added to the lineup. And today, they announced North Carolina natives The Avett Brothers, Scotty McCreery, Chase Rice and Parmalee will perform at the show as well: Additionally, they announced a livestream to ensure that fans from all over thew world can watch the star-studded concert, which sold-out the day tickets went on sale. Of course, the stream will provide an additional opportunity to raise as much money as possible for Hurricane Helene relief efforts, which is amazing. What's even more cool is that Veeps, which is where it will be streamed, will use geotargeting to ensure that those in the affected areas will not be charged. For those not directly impacted, the livestream will cost $24.99 with an option for additional donations available. All proceeds from the event, including sponsorships, will be split 50/50 between Combs and Church’s Chief Cares Foundation to administer to organizations of their choosing in support of relief efforts across the Carolinas and the Southeast. 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 a couple weeks ago called “Darkest Hour,” with all proceeds from it, forever, going to the people of North Carolina. If you weren’t able to score a ticket or can’t make it to the show, you can donate if you feel led to any of the organizations on the Concert For Carolina website . I can't wait to see what they have planned in-person... all of us in North Carolina could use the morale boost right about now, and I am just in awe at how much this is going to help my people in western North Carolina.
