Tyler Childers and Chris Stapleton to co-headline show, Tim McGraw and Faith Hill head to New York City | Music City Minute

Tyler Childers and Chris Stapleton will be co-headlining the sixth-annual Healing Appalachia music festival in their home state of Kentucky. The largest recovery-based music festival will take place September 19 and 20 in Ashland, Kentucky. The festival is held in September, which is national recovery month. Proceeds from the concerts will be collected for Hope in the Hills, which is a nonprofit organization committed to combating the opioid crisis and supporting recovery across Appalachia.
Tim McGraw and Faith Hill packed their bags for a very special trip to New York City this week. The famous country couple were attending a show at Carnegie Hall featuring their daughter, Gracie McGraw. The eldest McGraw daughter was performing in a production called “The Great War and The Great Gatsby”. Mom and Dad watched as Gracie showed off her amazing talent in front of a packed house. When the production ended at curtain call, Mom Faith was seen wiping away tears during the standing ovation.
