The Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum has announced the lineup for the upcoming All for the Hall benefit in Dallas, Texas. The show will feature Clint Black, Robert Earl Keen, Scotty McCreery, and Carly Pearce, with proceeds supporting the museum’s education programs.
Set for Tuesday, September 10, at Gilley’s Dallas, the event will showcase Black, Keen, McCreery, and Pearce in a Nashville “guitar-pull” style round.
Additionally, GRAMMY-nominated country trio Midland will perform the night before (Monday, September 9) at a Patron Party hosted by Anne and Steve Stodghill, honorary co-chairs of the event. (Previously announced performer Vince Gill is no longer able to attend the main event.)
Hosted tables and tickets for the event can be purchased here.
The upcoming two-day musical event marks the second time that Dallas, Texas has hosted an All for the Hall show. The inaugural All for the Hall Dallas event took palace in September of 2021 and featured Brooks & Dunn and Trisha Yearwood. This event was quite the success, rising more than $630,000 in support of The Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum and its educational initiatives, including its flagship Words & Music program. The program, offered in the Dallas Independent School District and beyond, enhances language arts by partnering professional songwriters with school classrooms to create original songs.
According to a press release, this year’s All for the Hall Dallas leaders include Lisa Arpey and Vikram Agrawal as chairs, the Stodghills serving as honorary chairs and Carri Hyde as a production partner. Troubadour Dallas Ambassadors co-chairs are Annabel Morgan and Emily Hyde, who will engage next generation patrons in All for the Hall.
The event’s inaugural chairs include Katy and Lawrence Bock; Terri and Kurt Johnson; Jonika and Corky Nix; Sunie and Steve Solomon; and Anne and Steve Stodghill. Entertainment producers include Rod Essig (CAA), Ken Levitan (Vector Management), Clarence Spalding (Maverick) and Jody Williams (Jody Williams Songs).
The All for the Hall campaign started in 2005 when Country Music Hall of Famer Vince Gill suggested that country artists donate proceeds from one annual performance to benefit the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum.
The series officially launched in 2007 in New York and has since alternated between New York and Los Angeles, hosted by Gill and fellow Hall of Famer Emmylou Harris. In Nashville, Gill co-hosts a recurring All for the Hall concert at Bridgestone Arena with Keith Urban. Earlier this year, Blake Shelton hosted a benefit in Oklahoma.
The Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum, which collects, preserves, and interprets the history of country music for the education and entertainment of diverse audiences, is located in Nashville at 222 Rep. John Lewis Way S, Nashville, TN 37203.
