Details have been revealed for the 35th annual Country Cares Seminar, the yearly gathering of music artists and industry professionals who lend their voice and platform to raise funds and awareness for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

This year’s event will take place on Oct. 21–22 at the Peabody Hotel in Memphis. Country hitmaker Jon Pardi will kick off things with a performance at the famed Graceland. Multi-Platinum singer-songwriter Megan Moroney will help close out the event with a performance at the Angels Among Us dinner, followed by a set from reigning ACM and CMA Group of the Year Old Dominion, which will include a special duet with Alabama frontman and Country Cares Founder, Randy Owen.

Old Dominion will also receive the 2024 Angels Among Us Award for their commitment and service to the mission of St. Jude. The band first attended the Country Cares Seminar in 2016 after signing to RCA Nashville, and has since participated in seven #ThisShirtSavesLives campaigns, played Bobby Bones & The Raging Idiots’ “Million Dollar Show,” lent their songs to support fundraising, performed at numerous fundraising events and spent time with patients.

The honor adds Old Dominion to a group of past Angels Among Us Award recipients including Owen, Brothers Osborne, Scotty McCreery, Florida Georgia Line, Lady A, Jake Owen, Brad Paisley and Darius Rucker.

“It’s truly humbling to be awarded the Angels Among Us honor by St. Jude,” says Old Dominion’s Matthew Ramsey. “The patients and families of St. Jude inspire us deeply. By uniting with fellow artists and country radio fans, we want to help make sure that no family receives a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food so they can focus on helping their child live. Supporting such a remarkable mission is a privilege, and we are thankful to be part of it.”

With over 350 radio and music partners, Music Gives to St. Jude Kids is one of the most successful music fundraising events in the United States. The country music industry helps to raise more than $70 million annually to accelerate St. Jude’s research and treatment that helps children with cancer and other life-threatening diseases.
