"The damage that we've seen to people's homes and the effect that the flooding has had on their lives is unimaginable. But we've seen the spirit of our community firsthand, as volunteers, church groups and our local business leaders rally to help. We all need to continue to support those in need in any way that we can, and for that reason, we could not be more appreciative to all of the artists, the companies and the people behind the scenes who collectively will make June 22 a truly special night," McGraw and Hill said in a statement. "
Meanwhile, red-hot pop star Ke$ha will hold her own benefit concert on June 16 at the Limelight entertainment venue in Nashville.

I will continue to do anything I can to help rebuild this city and support the families and animals who have been affected by this tragedy," said Ke$ha.
