Proceeds from the concert will go to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, who have completely changed how the world treats children with cancer and other catastrophic diseases through their research.

"St. Jude's is not just a hospital children go to who are sick, but a place that comes to families in times of need no matter their given circumstances," said Drew Overcash. "As a member of a St. Jude family, the time, energy and boundless love they share with those they work with is incredible."
