Country Stars Sign on to Perform at Joe Walsh’s Benefit Concert
The Eagles' Joe Walsh has announced an inaugural concert to coincide with the launch of his new foundation, VetsAid, that is packing some serious country star power.
As reported by Taste of Country, Keith Urban and Zac Brown Band have signed on to perform at the first ever VetsAid benefit concert on Sept. 20 in Fairfax, Va. In addition to Urban and Zac Brown Band, Walsh and Gary Clark Jr. will treat the audience to their incredible guitar skills. Walsh created VetsAid as a nonprofit organization that aims to raise money for veterans and their families.
“I had to do something and rock and roll seems to be what I do best. It’s also the least I could do for those who have served and continue to serve our country,” Walsh says in a press release. “We’re all in this together as Americans and seems to me lately that people are forgetting that. I asked my buddies Zac, Gary and Keith to step up and I’m so grateful that they did. Let’s put on a show, raise some money and celebrate our vets—and let’s do it every year!”
Tickets are currently on sale for the concert, ranging from $54 to $154. More information about the concert, being held at the EagleBank Arena, can be found on the VetsAid website.
