They’ve both talked about going to a ton of country concerts in Albany while growing up, so it’s fitting that Cole and Luke are now part of a planned benefit concert to help area storm victims.
Praying for Albany and all of South Georgia. My heart goes out to those who lost loved ones.

He says, “This is a time for us to really get together and raise some money for people who need it. It’s impacted our hometowns. We’ve done some charities over the years, but this hit home. Really was no hesitation from anybody.”
More stars are expected to join the concert lineup in the coming days. We’ll keep you posted when the date, time and location for the show is announced.
