The sold-out show will benefit St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital®, the leading healthcare provider for childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases. Thanks to generous donors, families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food.
Black River Entertainment’s Bobby Bones & The Raging Idiots will headline the live concert event with performances by Sam Hunt, Rascal Flatts, The Band Perry, Caitlyn Smith and other special guests. Bobby Bones – host of iHeartMedia’s The Bobby Bones Show, the award-winning Country morning radio program reaching millions of listeners on nearly 100 stations nationwide – will host the benefit event.
The BIG 98 Presents: Bobby Bones & The Raging Idiots’ Million Dollar Show For St. Jude is a celebration of the fundraising efforts of Bobby Bones & The Raging Idiots over the past few years, which has resulted in more than $2.2 million being raised for St. Jude through on-air fundraisers, radiothons and charity concerts.
“The thing that always humbles me is the insane generosity of our listeners and fans,” said Bobby Bones. “It’s crazy that the show is already sold-out and it’s because of them that we’re able to do so much good for an amazing cause like St. Jude. I also have to mention how grateful we are to the artists, and their kindness in taking the time to be a part of the show. It’s going to be a great night!”
