North Carolina natives, Luke Combs, Eric Church and James Taylor present the “Concert for Carolina” on Saturday, October 26. This special show also features Colorado favorite, Billy Strings, as well as a roster of performers who will be announced later. The Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, North Carolina will play host for the benefit show.

A press release posted to the Carolina Panthers’ website included more details about the relief effort:

“All proceeds from the event, including sponsorships, will be split 50/50 between Combs and Church’s Chief Cares Foundation to administer to organizations of their choosing in support of relief efforts across the Carolinas and the Southeast.

Combs’ portion will be distributed between Samaritan’s PurseManna Food Bank and Second Harvest Food Bank of Northwest NC, as well as one more organization still to be announced.

Church’s Chief Cares is focused on helping established charities and organizations that are well managed, organized and can expedite aid directly to the families affected by Hurricane Helene.

For those unable to attend the concert but still looking to support, donations can be made now to The North Carolina Community Foundation Disaster Relief Fund or to various organizations listed at www.concertforcarolina.com.”
