Dierks Bentley, Darius Rucker, Jamey Johnson, More To Play Hope 4 Hope Town Benefit Concert

Dierks Bentley, Darius Rucker, Jamey Johnson and more are slated to play the SIP Hope 4 Hope Town benefit concert taking place at Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium on Sept. 16.

Organized and hosted by songwriter Patrick Davis (founder of SIP and frontman of Patrick Davis and his Midnight Choir), in partnership with The BIG 98, iHeartCountry and Bobby & Amy from The Bobby Bones Show, the concert will provide desperately needed funds to relief efforts in the Bahamas following the destruction of Hurricane Dorian last week.

Other announced performers include LOCASH, Randy Houser, Kristian Bush of Sugarland, Mark Bryan of Hootie & the Blowfish, Devin Dawson and James Otto, as well as some acclaimed songwriters including Chris Gelbuda (producer for “Like I’m Gonna Lose You” by Meghan Trainor feat. John Legend), Wyatt Durette (“Chicken Fried” by Zac Brown Band), Channing Wilson (“She Got the Best of Me” by Luke Combs), Tyler Reeve (“In Case You Didn’t Know” by Brett Young) and Django Walker (“Texas on My Mind” by Pat Green).

Songwriters in Paradise (SIP), an annual songwriter festival, has been a fixture in Hope Town on the Abaco Islands in the Bahamas for the past eight years. Unfortunately, Hope Town and the Abacos were the first place in the Bahamas to receive the brunt of Hurricane Dorian’s destruction.

Patrick Davis and the rest of the SIP Family immediately stepped up to help out their friends, beginning with a GoFundMeCampaign that has raised nearly $400,000 to-date. The GoFundMe Campaign, benefit concert and auction will benefit the overall Hurricane Dorian relief efforts but especially those on the outer Bahamian islands who may not be as quick to receive government aid.
