Texas Hill Country needs help, and country music stars are answering the call | Music City Minute

Jul 16, 2025, 4:28 PM

It is true not all heroes wear capes – sometimes they wear cowboy hats! In this case, Chris Stapleton has stepped up help folks affected by the devastating Texas floods. Humanitarianism runs deep in the Stapleton family. Repeatedly, Chris and Morgane have helped with relief funds, especially in the way of natural disasters, such as flooding, tornadoes and wildfires. The country power couple have now donated $1 million to support flood victims through their charitable fund “Outlaw State of the Kind.” The funds will benefit local Texas and national organizations, including Miranda Lambert’s “MuttNation.”
Speaking of the “Bluebird” singer, Lambert has confirmed she is planning a charity concert that will benefit organizations committed to flood relief. Unfortunately, no specific details are available yet. However, the country icon is looking forward to providing more help to her fellow Texans.
I’m Sheena, and that’s your Music City Minute.
