For the fifth year in a row, Heart in Hand/Critters Hollow Ranch & Rescue will be hosting its annual concert fundraiser to aid in the rescue of unwanted pets. Each year, the organization asks local bluegrass, roots, country and folk artists to donate their time to play live at the event. “It’s the bands and artists that make our fundraisers successful. Without their help and willingness to play as a donation, especially in these hard times for musicians, we would not be able to have these events. Some of them even do online fundraising for us, and we are truly grateful,” Heart in Hand’s Vice President LeeAnna Romero said.
Artists on the roster for this year’s fundraiser include:
Matt Aldridge & Jade Arrow 12:00 p.m.
Kyle Doty 1:00 p.m.
Sweet Georgia Brown 2:00 p.m.
Milly Racoon 3:00 p.m.
Rocky Bottom 4:00 p.m.
Doc Elliot 5:00 p.m.
Daniel Mason 6:00 p.m.
W.D. Miller 7:00 p.m.
Dylan Walsh 8:00 p.m.
JD Wilkes 9:00 p.m.
Joey Allcorn 10:00 p.m.
Food and beverages will be served, and one night of free camping (first come, first serve) will be allowed for RVs, trailers, and tent campers. It’s recommended that attendees bring their own blanket and chair. Admission is $5 for adults. Kids 12 and under get in free. Dogs are allowed but must be kept on a leash.
The concert will be held at 475 Eastfork Leatherwood Rd. Stewart, TN 37175, and proceeds from the event will go to Heart in Hand’s foster program, which takes in unwanted dogs (and other pets as sponsorship or donations allow), gets them spayed or neutered, makes sure they are up to date on vaccinations, and trains them in basic commands.
