Proceeds from the concert, hosted by best-selling author Annie F. Downs, will directly support students, faculty, staff and families of the Covenant School.

"I'm so honored to be a part of this event, gathering with our city and rallying around a school and community that I love so much," Annie F. Downs said in a press release.

"Nashville is once again stepping up and using its talents and resources to support the community," Hemby added. "After attending the funerals of victims, who were also friends, it will be healing for me to be able to sing songs about hope in a broken world, and to honor the victims, the school, and the first responders."
