The ninth annual “Gretsch Presents Georgia on My Mind” benefit concert, hosted by Brent Cobb and Amy Ray, is returning to the Ryman Auditorium on May 10. Artists set to perform on the lineup include Amy Grant, Amythyst Kiah, Alison Brown, Butch Walker, Charlie Starr, Elizabeth Cook, Katie Pruitt, Kevn Kinney, Jontavious Willis, The Lone Bellow, O.N.E The Duo and Patterson Hood.

Stringonometry, an accomplished bluegrass band featuring four high school seniors from Thomasville, Georgia, will highlight the power of music education performing on the Ryman’s PNC Plaza ahead of the show.

Proceeds from the show benefit the Georgia Music Foundation and its music grants, which fund music programs at schools, after-school programs and summer camps. Tickets for the annual benefit show go on sale at ryman.com on Friday, March 4. The Georgia Music Foundation has awarded nearly $600,000 in Georgia Music Grants since the first “Georgia On My Mind” in 2014.

Says Cobb, “I can’t wait to get on the Ryman stage with Amy and a bunch of our friends to make music in honor of Georgia and all its musicians who came before us.” Ray adds, “This show is a very special offering of some of our state’s finest artists and some of our neighbors, all bringing their gifts together to help us raise money for the Georgia Music Foundation.”

“We see value in coming to Nashville—a sales mission, if you will—to acknowledge and celebrate the musicians and songwriters from Georgia who have long had such an impact on American music,” shares Executive Director Lisa Love. “To create a Georgia sense of place inside the Ryman is already special, but to be able to do it help fund music education for future generations is golden.”
