Beeping and hollering caused quite a stir on Music Row last Friday afternoon and it wasn’t just rush hour. The Row went wild and was jam packed with trolleys and cars as Craig Wiseman and his friends; the Second Harvest Food Bank volunteers, the Big Loud Shirt gang, country music sweethearts Joey + Rory, and upcoming artist Jeremy McComb all pitched in blockading both ends of Music Row, stopping cars, and rallying people to drop pennies, quarters, dollars, and canned food items into their buckets to help the demand for emergency food assistance in Middle Tennessee. Overall, $1,340 in cash donations and 150 lbs of food donations were raised in support of their efforts making the first ever Music Row Rally a success.

Craig Wiseman spear headed the effort and is not backing down, as he will also be at the Ryman Auditorium this Tuesday, Sept. 29 for the 5th Annual Stars For Second Harvest Benefit concert. The show which kicks off at 7:30pm, features unplugged acoustic style performances by some of country music’s hottest acts including; Luke Bryan, Rodney Atkins, Phil Vassar, Joey + Rory and Heidi Newfield just to name a few. Thanks to presenting sponsor O’Charley’s, all proceeds benefit the Second Harvest Food Bank of Middle Tennessee in their efforts to feed the hungry.
