Concert Raises Money For Paris Attack Victims

Posted

Nashville came together to show support for the victims killed in last month’s terror attacks in Paris.

Dozens of people gathered at the Mercy Lounge for the "Songs of Solidarity for Paris" benefit concert to raise money for the Red Cross.

The event featured some of Nashville's biggest up-and-coming musical acts.

While organizers, said the goal of the event was to support the people of Paris, they hope folks who attend will get something out of it as well.

"We hope that everybody can come and just be as a community and unite, and just feel a sense of unity and camaraderie together as they come, just to support Paris and just to be here and find joy even when things are hard and when bad things happen that they can leave knowing that good still overcomes," said organizer Anna Halburt.

The concert lasted until about 11 p.m.
