Koe Wetzel to host benefit concert for Texas Hill Country flood relief
Texas-born country singer Koe Wetzel is hosting a benefit concert in the Metroplex next month for those impacted by the Texas Hill Country floods.
Wetzel, who is from Pittsburg, is uniting several of his famous friends for the “Stronger Together” benefit on Aug. 4 at The Pavilion At Toyota Music Factory in Irving. Tickets for the concert are on sale now via Wetzel’s website.
All proceeds from the show will benefit the Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country’s Kerr County flood relief fund. There will also be an on-site silent auction to help raise additional funds.
“Texas is home – these floods hit our neighbors hard and they need our help,” Wetzel said in a news release. “Music has a way of bringing people together, and I’m grateful to my friends who immediately raised their hands to help when we called. This benefit concert is our way of standing with the people of Texas and doing whatever we can to make a difference as our great state rebuilds.”
