In response to the devastating wildfires that have swept through West Texas, three renowned Amarillo-native country artists, Randall King, Kevin Fowler and Aaron Watson have joined forces to present "THE PANHANDLE BOYS: West Texas Fire Relief Concert." The fundraiser is set to take place on Sunday, March 24, at the picturesque Starlight Ranch in Amarillo, TX and all of the proceeds will benefit The Panhandle Disaster Relief Fund. Tickets are on sale now at PanHandleBoys.com.
This intimate acoustic ‘in-the-round’ event will allow attendees to experience heartfelt performances in a stripped-down, soulful setting, creating an atmosphere of unity and support for the West Texas communities in need. The trio of artists, each deeply rooted in their love for the Texas Panhandle, showcase their Texan spirit and genuine concern through the swift organization of this benefit concert, demonstrating the power of solidarity in times of need.
“As the news broke about the wildfires raging across the panhandle, the place I was born and raised, I knew we had to do something to help. Amarillo is my hometown,” shares Kevin Fowler. “These are my people. I’m so excited to join forces with my fellow panhandle boys, Aaron Watson and Randall King to do what we can to help support all the families affected by these fires and the heroes out there on the front lines.”
Additionally, Randall King said, “My heart goes out to my homeland. So many families, lives and ways of living have been affected by these fires and I want to do my part to help in the best way I know how. When Kevin reached out for this opportunity, I absolutely had to jump on the chance to help heal the panhandle through the power of music.”
“As devastating as all of this has been, it’s hard to not feel hopeless but for one night, we’re going to do our part to try and bring a smile to people’s faces,” Aaron Watson explains. “I’m honored to be joining the boys for this incredible benefit and to raise money to try and help these families get back on their feet.”
