The Texas flood benefit put together by Parker McCollum and Miranda Lambert brought in a huge bag for relief efforts. “Band Together Texas” raised over $8.5-million, with more coming in, for The Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country and Central Texas Community Foundation. The evening featured performances by Lambert and McCollum, along with Ryan Bingham, Wade Bowen, Ronnie Dunn, Dylan Gossett, Jack Ingram, Cody Johnson, Lyle Lovett, Lukas Nelson, Jon Randall, the Randy Rogers Band and more. One surprise guest: Jason Aldean, who had played Austin the night before but stayed to lend a hand for the benefit. The floods in Texas last month resulted in a loss of 138 confirmed deaths, with monetary losses in the billions of dollars.
