Country star Ty Herndon has announced that Ingrid Andress, Runaway June, Tiera Kennedy, Maggie Rose, and The Kentucky Gentlemen have joined the lineup for the 10th anniversary of the Concert for Love & Acceptance.
They join previously announced performers Dasha, David Archuleta, Brooke Eden, Lindsay Ell, and Sam Williams.
The Concert for Love & Acceptance is set to take place beginning at 7:30 PM on June 2nd at Category 10, formerly the Wildhorse Saloon, in Nashville.
"CMA Fest is such a sacred week for country music lovers, and we're honored to be able to kick the week off for the fans with a night of music that brings us together and reminds us that we have a whole lot more in common than what divides us," said Herndon. "This is a night about putting differences aside and coming together to say we're all God's children and our job is to love and accept one another."
Proceeds from the event support Herndon's Foundation For Love and Acceptance, which focuses on supporting the LGBTQ community alongside support for mental health, addiction, and trauma recovery.
