World-class musicians Josh Day, Brian Allen, Scott Patton, Jeff Fielder, and Adrian Carter will anchor the house band for the show, with proceeds benefitting Georgia Music Foundation and its Georgia Music Grants, which fund music programs at schools, after-school programs and summer camps.
"I can't wait to get on the Ryman stage with Amy and a bunch of our friends to make music in honor of Georgia and all its musicians who came before us," says Brent Cobb.
Stringonometry, an accomplished bluegrass band featuring four high school seniors from Thomasville, Georgia, will highlight the power of music education with a performance on the Ryman’s PNC Plaza ahead of the show from 5:30 to 7 p.m. The Georgia Music Foundation, a non-profit organization, has awarded nearly $600,000 in Georgia Music Grants since the first “Georgia On My Mind” in 2014.
