Luke Combs, Eric Church, Billy Strings, and James Taylor will headline Concert For Carolina, a special benefit show presented by Explore Asheville and the Buncombe County Tourism Development Authority, on Saturday, October 26 at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, North Carolina.

The Tar Heel State is a profoundly special place for all four artists. It is where Combs, Church, and Taylor grew up and first discovered their musical interests and where Strings has performed many times and holds an extra special place in his heart. Sheryl Crow, Keith Urban, and Bailey Zimmerman have already been added to the lineup featuring additional artists to be announced.

The group mobilized and initiated outreach to organize an event aimed at raising critical funds for the relief efforts following Hurricane Helene's significant devastation. The Teppers, owners of the Carolina Panthers and Bank of America Stadium, generously offered the stadium to make the benefit concert a reality.

“We’ve been honored and uplifted by the outpouring of care and concern from across the country,” said Vic Isley, president and CEO of Explore Asheville and the Buncombe County Tourism Development Authority. “Through this tragedy, the heart of hospitality has been a beacon of light. We are proud to contribute one million dollars to this effort knowing millions more will flow back to communities in need....”

All proceeds from the event, including sponsorships, will be split 50/50 between Combs and Church’s Chief Cares Foundation to administer to organizations of their choosing in support of relief efforts across the Carolinas and the Southeast.
