With proceeds going to the RHS Helping Hands Foundation, the concert features a great lineup of The Isaacs, Russ Taff, Dailey and Vincent, Guy Penrod and master of ceremonies Kevin Williams.

Tickets are $20 and may be purchased at Liberty Bank locations in Rector and Paragould, all Glen Sain automobile dealerships, Piggott State Bank and the ASU Convocation Center box office.

The sellout number is 1,500 and more than 1,300 tickets already have been sold six weeks prior to the concert.
