Rucker is a loyal St. Jude supporter who has visited patients at the hospital and performed at multiple events in support of the hospital's lifesaving mission. After touring the facility in 2009, Rucker vowed to create a personalized event that would raise money and awareness for St. Jude.

"This was a chance for my friends and I to do something during CMA Music Fest week that is for the fans while drawing attention to St. Jude and their incredible efforts," says Rucker. "It's going to be a great night of music and stories."

All proceeds from ticket sales will help St. Jude continue its mission of finding cures and saving children fighting deadly diseases.
