A Texas country singer who lost four family members in the July 4 floods will host a live-streamed benefit concert Wednesday night, according to his foundation’s website.

Singer-songwriter Pat Green, who lives in Fort Worth, will host and perform alongside Miranda Lambert, Dierks Bentley, the Eli Young Band, Jon Pardi and others, according to the website. The event will be held at 6:30 p.m. CT at Arlington’s Globe Life Field, in partnership with the Texas Rangers and REV Entertainment.

“No audience will be in attendance, however a wide array of artists will perform or appear at a show streamed for free on YouTube, passing along the collective outpouring of love Green has received from so many,” the website reads.

All proceeds from the concert live-stream will directly benefit families affected by the disaster, according to the website.

Green’s younger brother John Burgess, Burgess’ wife Julia and two of the couple’s children died in the floods, Green and his wife Kori confirmed via Instagram last week.

“We are grieving alongside countless Texans whose lives have been upended by this tragedy,” the post reads.

The couple and their two sons were staying in an RV park near the Guadalupe River, the Star-Telegram previously reported. Their 8-year-old daughter was at a camp nearby that was not impacted by the flooding and is safe.
