NASHVILLE, Tenn (WTVF) — Wednesday evening is the 20th annual Bluegrass Benefit Concert for Nashville's Homeless.
Valerie Smith and Liberty Pike will be the new hosts of the event and have set up some of the most popular bluegrass artists to perform alongside them such as Sierra Hull and Justin Moses, Krity Cox and John Meader, Missy Raines and Alegheny, Sister Sady, and Echo Valley.
Admission is $20 and proceeds will be given to Room in the Inn, a non-profit that helps the homeless. Guests are encouraged to bring toiletry items to be donated such as toothbrushes, deodorant, and wipes.
The benefit concert is at the Station Inn. Doors open at 7 p.m. and music begins at 8.
September 11, 2001 is a day most associate with terror and tragedy. Austin Pollack shares a story from that day about hope and persistence: the effort to save a little girl’s life – with an organ donation. The problem? The young patient was in Houston, and her life-saving liver here in Nashville. With the grounding of all civilian aircraft, how could it be done? “Nobody ever said this isn’t possible.”
