Restless Heart to Host Second “Music With a Mission” Benefit

For the second year, Restless Heart will host its “Music With a Mission” benefit for the Nashville Rescue Mission at the Schermerhorn Symphony Center.

The October 14 event begins at 7 pm and features the Nashville Symphony Orchestra backing an all-star musical guest list including Amy Grant, Branford Marsalis, Joey Calderazzo, Ricky Skaggs, Larry Gatlin & the Gatlin Brothers, Tracy Lawrence, The Booth Brothers, Alison Brown, and Karyn Williams.

Bill Cody and Demetria Kalodimos will serve as masters of ceremonies for the evening, which features a silent auction from items donated by Jack White of The White Stripes; Foster the People, Restless Heart, George Jones and Bill Anderson. Several items will be available to bid through the website only.

“The Nashville Rescue Mission has so many programs beyond just food and shelter—you can get your GED, counseling, spiritual support, plus help getting back to the work with classes in résumé writing, computer labs and so much more,” said Dave Innis of Restless Heart and co-producer/musical coordinator for the event. “We are proud that our Nashville Symphony neighbor is so generously providing the Schermerhorn for a second time along with its Grammy Award winning orchestra.”

Last year’s event raised over $70,000 for the Mission.

Tickets are available for $35. For additional information, click here.
