Good music for a good cause. John Rich will welcome friends Wynonna, Larry the Cable Guy, Big Kenny and Lisa Rinna for St. Jude Presents John Rich & Friends.
The event will take place June 4 at the Cannon Center for the Performing Arts in Memphis, Tenn. The event will serve as the second annual concert tee off for the 2013 FedEx St. Jude Classic. Proceeds from the concert, as well as the FedEx St. Jude Classic, will benefit St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital®.
“From the first time I visited St. Jude years ago, I knew that it was a place I belonged,” said Wynonna. “As a mother, I look into the eyes of every child and I realize that they could easily be one of my children. As an artist, I ask myself, ‘What can I do to bring a blessing to these wounded and hurting families?'”
“One of the greatest honors of my life’s work is to help the kids at St Jude,” says John Rich. “To bring music to their lives, and use music to raise funds for their care is something bigger than a hit song or a sold out concert. I’m very appreciative to my friends Big Kenny, Wynonna, Larry the Cable Guy and Lisa Rinna for participating this year in our special event! This will be a great celebration ‘For The Kids’!”
Tickets range from $40-$80 per person and are available at ticketmaster.com.
