Nashville, Tenn. (March 9, 2020) — Country Music Hall of Famer Ray Stevens has announced his efforts to help those affected by the tornadoes that ravaged Middle Tennessee last week.

“Tennessee is known as the ‘Volunteer State’ and you know it’s true when you look at the tremendous outpouring of support we’ve seen over the past few days,” says Stevens. “This week, my CabaRay Showroom here in Nashville kicks off its 2020 season. We’ll be donating the opening night’s proceeds to tornado relief efforts here in Middle Tennessee.”

Stevens’ 2020 season opening night at CabaRay is set for this Thursday, March 12 at 7:30 p.m. / CT. Proceeds from the evening will go to storm victims via the Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee.
