Nashville native Mitchell Tenpenny reacted swiftly after a call from NASH FM’s Chuck Wicks to work together to raise donations for families impacted by the tornado that hit Nashville on 3/3. Their partnership resulted in two sold-out concerts held 3/9 at Dierks Bentley’s Whiskey Row. All ticket sales from the shows, auction item donations, and proceeds from bar sales went to benefit Hands On Nashville. $73,698 was raised.

Guest artists performing at the tornado relief concerts included Devin Dawson, Jessie James Dicker, HARDY and The Band CAMINO, with surprise guests Kathie Lee Gifford, Boys Like Girls, Chris Lane, Parmalee, Meghan Patrick, Tyler Rich, Cole Swindell, Leah Sykes, and The Sisterhood Band.

All of the artists wish to thank these supporters for their contributions to the auction and for making the night happen: Born & Raised Festival, Buckeye Country Superfest, Kelly Clarkson, Gibson guitars, Kathie Lee Gifford, Miranda Lambert, LANCO, Tim McGraw, Maren Morris, Walter Munday, Nashville Predators, Nashville Soccer Club, Nashville Sounds, Nashville Titans, painter Sydney Clawson, Blake Shelton, Stagecoach festival, tattoo artist Bubba Irwin, Top Golf and Brett Young.
