During Carly Pearce's recent concert at Marathon Music Works in Nashville, she made a $10,000 donation through the Music Has Value Fund to Kentucky Music Educators Association in partnership with National Association for Music Education. The Taylor Mill, Kentucky native has seen the devastation from recent tornadoes across the area, and specifically, for the family of her bass player Phil Noel in Mayfield.
Carly's concert, called Inside 29: Written In Stone Live From Music City, was filmed for release later in the year. Special guests throughout the performance included Ashley McBryde, Lee Brice, Matthew West and The Isaacs.
She said, “I am grateful to have had the support of my strong Kentucky lineage and embrace from true lovers of Country music so it’s an honor to help give back to the community that raised me. This donation from the Music Has Value Fund is a way to uplift some other dreamers in the face of chaos. I wrote this album out of survival, and it ended up being the most beautiful season of my life. My hope is that we all find healing in our heartaches.”
Carly will join Kenny Chesney on his Here And Now Tour which opens on Saturday (April 23rd) in Tampa, FL.
