Kerrville has been reeling for most of the last two weeks from record flooding and from the loss of life that accompanied it. People from across the state and the nation poured their support into the region's communities.
Kerrville musician Robert Earl Keen plans to offer his own contribution to the healing process.
He was slated for a concert in the city’s Louise Hays Park on July 4, but the torrential rains and record flooding made that impossible.
Now he’s decided to put on that concert, but only bigger. It will benefit the Community Foundation of the Hill Country.
Keen selected the Whitewater Amphitheater between Canyon Lake and New Braunfels for the benefit concert. And he won't be the only star on the stage: “Miranda Lambert, Jon Randall, Jack Ingram, Tyler Childers, Cross-Canadian Ragweed, Randy Rogers, Wade Bowen, Terry Allen, Ray Wiley Hubbard, Hayes Carl, and on and on,” he said.
It all starts at 3 p.m. on Thursday, Aug. 28. Find more information on his website.
