Rising country music star 
Anne Wilson is set to headline a benefit concert to support tornado relief efforts in her home state of Kentucky. The event, scheduled for August 15, 2025, at the Rupp Arena in Lexington, aims to raise funds for communities devastated by recent tornadoes that tore through the region.
Wilson, known for her chart-topping hit “My Jesus” and her heartfelt performances, announced the concert on her social media, expressing her deep connection to Kentucky. “This is home, and seeing the destruction from these tornadoes breaks my heart,” Wilson shared. “I want to use my music to bring people together and help rebuild lives.”
The concert will feature special guest performances by local artists and a few surprise names from the country music scene, though details are still under wraps. All proceeds will go directly to the Kentucky Tornado Relief Fund, which supports families with immediate needs like shelter, food, and medical care, as well as long-term rebuilding efforts.
Tickets for the event go on sale July 20, 2025, via the Rupp Arena website, with prices ranging from $25 to $100 to ensure accessibility for all fans. Organizers are also offering a virtual streaming option for those unable to attend in person, allowing global supporters to contribute to the cause.
The tornadoes, which struck in early July 2025, left a trail of destruction across several Kentucky counties, displacing hundreds of families and causing millions in damages. Wilson’s benefit concert is part of a broader wave of community-driven initiatives to aid recovery.
Fans can expect an evening filled with Wilson’s signature blend of country, gospel, and inspirational music, alongside messages of hope and unity. “Music has a way of healing,” Wilson said. “I pray this night brings comfort and shows Kentucky we’re stronger together.”
