Second Harvest Food Bank of Middle Tennessee has been hard at work to meet the needs of our community throughout the crisis from the recent floods. The widespread damage caused by the flooding throughout Tennessee resulted in 31 of the 46 counties in their service area to be classified as federal disaster areas. The flooding throughout Tennessee has affected our communities both personally and professionally, with many losing homes and belongings along with their jobs, businesses and income.

Keeping the Second Harvest Food Bank warehouse stocked for the ongoing needs of victims in our community is a necessity.  Your support is more vital than ever to help them fulfill their mission to feed our neighbors in need throughout the long-term recovery and rebuilding process.

If you are unable to make it to the show you can still help!  Starting Tuesday, May 25th Country Music Tattle Tale will be launching our online eBay auctions that will include autographed memorabilia from your favorite country music artists. 100% of the proceeds will be donated to Second Harvest Food Bank of Middle TN.

A Flood Relief Benefit is being added to our Musicians on Call Benefit. We will be collecting various items for those in need; un-used cell phones, clothes, non-perishable food, duffel bags, brooms, cleaning supplies, bleach, mops, etc.

Let’s work together and spread the word, invite your friends!

Musicians on Call: This is one of many concert series I’m hoping will help raise money and awareness to this wonderful program: Musicians on Call, an organization dedicated to bringing live music to those in hospital and helping the healing process through music.

www.musiciansoncall.org

Door proceeds will go to Musicians on Call and items collected at the event for the Flood Relief will be given to various shelters around town and other people in need.

FOUR great acts will be performing at this first “House Call” Concert Series and we’re very grateful for their kindness – Jeanne Richardson, Anthony Snape, Trevor Finlay and The Legendary Walrus bands.

UPDATE: This event will NOT be hosted by everyone’s favorite news anchor Christine Maddela unfortunately (please see comments).
