The 1st Annual Playin' For A Promise concert took place on Tuesday, April 27 featuring James Otto and other special guests at Loser's Bar and Grill in support of The Playin' for a Promise Fund.
Along with James Otto, the line up included special guest performers including members of Lynryd Skynyrd, Aaron Lewis from Staind, Josh Hoge, Brasher Boque Project, the Hotel Coral Essex Band and Brinley Addington. This special fundraising concert beneted Hunter Drake Tucker, a 7 year old boy fighting a battle against Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia, and to honor the life of a local legend, Forrest Bernadsky, who passed away suddenly from a massive heart attack.
With the creation of the First Annual Playin' for a Promise concert, this year served as the springboard for the Playin' for a Promise Fund. A group of community minded individuals became aware of the struggles of the Tucker family as their young son has been aggressively undergoing chemotherapy to eradicate the rare blood cancer. Young Hunter Drake Tucker has a wish to go to Disney World and to be transported to the most magical place on earth for the chance to step away from his daily battle with this disease. This child's simple wish has become the driving force behind a new fund that will benet those in need from the Middle Tennessee area.
The 1st Annual Playin' For A Promise Concert was sponsored in part by: Roberts Brothers Coaches of Springeld, TN, Harbor Entertainment of Nashville, TN, and Brantley Sound Associates.
The Playin' for a Promise Fund is volunteer driven with a mission to help the community, provide care and support both emotionally and nancially to those in need across the Middle Tennessee area. The signature event, Playin' for a Promise, was created specically for Middle Tennessee with the idea to give assistance to disadvantaged individuals in the community. While most foundations tie themselves to a single event or disease, The Playin' for a Promise Fund will be supporting the community with the proceeds being distributed on a local level.
