Country Music Hall of Fame member and Texas native George Strait is stepping up to help those in the Texas Hill Country impacted by the recent floods — and he’s welcoming plenty of his country music comrades to help.

On Sunday, July 27, Strait will hold the Strait to the Heart special benefit dinner and concert at Estancia at Thunder Valley indoor arena in Boerne, Texas. Also on the lineup are William Beckmann, Ray Benson, Wade Bowen, Dean Dillon, Riley Green, Randy Houser, Jamey Johnson, Kyle Park and Hudson Westbrook.

Strait has teamed with businessman and Vaqueros del Mar partner of 15 years Tom Cusick to organize the event.

“The destruction and loss in our community from the recent flood is hard to wrap your head around,” Strait said in a statement. “Our hearts and prayers are with you all. The goal with this event is to raise meaningful, immediate support that can be put directly into the hands of flood victims without delay, while also honoring the first responders that work tirelessly to save lives.”

Cusick added, “The road ahead will be a long one, however, the immediate need is so great that we didn’t want to wait. Together, we can show our neighbors that when hardship strikes, Texas and our country stand strong, and we stand together.”

The event is limited to 1,000 guests, and tickets and tables are available for purchase with price points beginning at $1,000. First responders in the local area will be offered complimentary tickets to the event. Donations from the funds raised by the event will be made to 501c3 Vaqueros del Mar Texas Flood Relief Fund and distributed directly to affected families as well as established Hill Country funds.

Persons interested in purchasing a table or tickets to Vaqueros del Mar’s Strait to the Heart concert — or those would like to make a donation — can email vaquerosdm@gmail.com. 

The flooding in the Texas Hill country over the July 4 weekend has left more than 120 people dead, and over 160 people still missing, including 150 still missing in the hard-hit Kerr County in Texas.
