Niko Moon and wife celebrate their latest collaboration, country stars lend their voices for an important cause | Music City Minute

The Happy Cowboy, Niko Moon and his wife, Anna, have a lot to be thankful for this holiday season, exclusively sharing with “People” magazine their family is expanding. The songwriting duo admits their journey into parenthood has not been an easy one. However, they are endlessly grateful for resources like IVF, because it has given them the opportunity to grow their little family. Niko and Anna will be welcoming a baby boy this time around and their 3-year-old, Lily, is overjoyed to be big sister.
The American Cancer Society put out a call for action in Nashville, and the response was incredible. Over $350,000 was raised to support the society’s programs and research during the annual Country vs. Cancer benefit show. The night’s lineup included Dierks Bentley, Miranda Lambert and Hardy, who said it was an honor to unite thousands of people for an uplifting and inspirational evening of music and charity to support folks impacted by cancer.
I’m Sheena, and that’s your Music City Minute.
