Habitat for Humanity’s Music Row Build will host its “A Band Of Brothers And Friends” benefit show this Thursday (July 11) at The Vinyl Lounge in Nashville.

The event will feature performances from Dale Brown, Mark Brown, Amy Harris, Dale Jarvis, Dave Mahanes, John Nichols, Reed Trickett and Makayla Lynn.

“I’ve always been a musician and from time to time enjoy doing a show for a worthwhile cause,” shares Mark Brown. “When we started the Music Row Build fund a few years ago, the band and I decided it would be a good way to have a vanity show and do something good at the same time. We managed to raise $10,000 from each of our first two shows. We always have some people that make extra generous donations and are looking forward to a great show.”

Renee Bell established the Music Row Build in 2003, and teamed up with Ree Guyer in 2005. Mark helped to reinvigorate Music Row Build in 2020. After he built two homes to benefit Habitat For Humanity families, Eclipse Music Group’s Penny Gattis took over as Chair. In 2022, Guyer donated $140,000 to start the Music Row Build Fund, which supports advocacy for affordable housing in Nashville as well as continually funding the build for deserving Nashville families. The next build is scheduled for Oct. 12.

“A Band Of Brothers And Friends” will begin at 7 p.m. A $25 donation is suggested, with all proceeds benefiting this year’s build. For more information, click here.

Wynonna Judd is returning to the Venetian Theatre inside The Venetian Resort Las Vegas for a special three-night run during NFR week this December.

To celebrate her four decade-long career, which began as one half of the legendary mother-daughter duo, The Judds, Judd will play The Greatest Hits in honor of her 40^th anniversary as an entertainer. The shows will take place Wednesday, Dec. 11, Friday, Dec. 13 and Saturday, Dec. 14.

“Sometimes I feel like you just need to throw a big party for yourself! This is a milestone year for me,” says Judd. “Mom and I played our very first show in 1984, which means I’ve been performing live for 40 years. That’s more than half of my life! The Greatest Hits celebration is a chance for the fans and I to celebrate. They have been with me for so long and my hope is that everyone will get to hear their favorite song. How many hits can we fit into one show? Let’s find out!”

Morgan Wallen performed for 50,000 fans during his sold-out debut at London’s Hyde Park yesterday (July 4)—marking the largest country concert ever held in the United Kingdom.

The show marked Wallen’s first U.K. appearance since performing for a sold-out crowd at The O2 in December. His 24-song set featured a solo rendition of he and Post Malone’s history-making collaboration, “I Had Some Help,” and an acoustic performance of his new single, “Lies Lies Lies.” Wallen then closed out the milestone evening with “The Way I Talk” from his 2018 debut album, If I Know Me.

Written by Jessie Jo Dillon, Josh Miller, Daniel Ross and Chris Tompkins, and produced by Joey Moi, the superstar timed the release of “Lies Lies Lies” to his return to the city where it was originally recorded as a part of his Abbey Road Sessions, which he released on March 3 to celebrate the one-year anniversary of One Thing At A Time. As Wallen prepared to take the stage, the record-breaking collection’s cover art was projected throughout Camden and Southbank as well as onto Tate Modern and the Wellington Arch. He also surprised fans with the drop of a U.K.-exclusive “Lies Lies Lies” physical CD.

With a portion of every ticket purchased to his live shows benefitting the Morgan Wallen Foundation (MWF), which operates on the core belief that all children deserve a chance to thrive, play and create through sports and music, the MWF earmarked $20,000 to support London Youth Choirs (LYC), whose mission is to improve access to music for disadvantaged youth.

Wallen will travel overseas once again to kick off his first-ever European tour in Stockholm, Sweden on Aug. 28. The seven-show run will include stops in Copenhagen, Denmark; Amsterdam, Netherlands; Glasgow, U.K. and more before concluding with two back-to-back nights in Dublin, Ireland.
