Kip Moore has teamed up with international skateboarding champion Tony Hawk to host the first ever “Music City Skate Jam Presented By Harley-Davidson,” which will take place at Music City Walk Of Fame Park in Nashville on Sept. 10. The fun-filled family event will help raise funds for Moore’s Kip’s Kids Fund and the Tony Hawk Foundation, both of which share a goal of benefiting and empowering youth.
Hawk will demo some of the skating prowess that made him a legend during the event, which will also include a performance by newcomer Jordan Davis, spins by Dee Jay Silver, and a set by Moore. Tickets are on sale now here.
“I think what’s always driven me at my core, throughout my career, was to one day have the capability to make a major impact in inner cities around the country,” said Moore. “I was never a true skater, but always admired the brotherhood of the skating community. Having a chance to team up with a guy like Tony, who’s so respected for all he does, is beyond what I could’ve imagined. I’m super stoked to combine what we do, as we both share similar visions.”
“The Music City Skate Jam is the first event of its kind, bringing skateboarding and country music together,” said Hawk. “I’m excited to show Nashville an unprecedented display of talent, including some of the world’s best skaters and Kip Moore himself.”
