Brice Long may be a well-known singer/songwriter in Nasvhille, TN — having had cuts with Garth Brooks, Chris Stapleton, Jon Pardi, George Strait, Gary Allan, Craig Campbell, Randy Travis, and more — but, this Hopkinsville native has a big heart and wants to support the community that helped raise him and nurture his career.
That’s why Brice launched the Back2Back Foundation, a non-profit organization established to help meet the needs of families during the holiday season in Christian, Todd and Trigg counties, in 2005. The Back2Back Foundation brings shoes, clothing, food, toys, household items, beds, school supplies, etc to families in need during Christmas.
Brice and his foundation have been able to support over 320 families in his hometown counties and raised over half a million dollars.
In order to raise funds to support the holiday efforts of the Back2Back Foundation, Brice organizes a concert to raise money for the project. He brings some of his songwriter friends to his hometown.
At the Brice Long Concert, audience members can enjoy great music and hear origin stories of some of their favorite songs from the songwriters themselves and a silent auction.
Brice’s heart to give back to his community with the help of our own community is a prime example of what the Feel Good Story is all about. It’s people helping people. We’re all in this together, so let’s help each other out.
Brice was our guest co-host this morning and, as well as chatting about the Back2Back Foundation concert and efforts during the Christmas season, Brice played some music he’d co-written on The Beaver Morning Show with Fletch & Jai.
