Austin, TX – In a powerful display of solidarity and support, an exceptional lineup of country music artists is set to grace the stage at ACL Live at The Moody Theater for the “Deep In The Heart” benefit concert on September 8, 2025.

The Devastating July Floods in Kerr County and the Need for Texas Flood Recovery
In early July 2025, the Texas Hill Country, and particularly Kerr County, experienced some of the most destructive flooding in its history. Triggered by heavy rainfall, the Guadalupe River rapidly surged beyond its banks, leading to widespread devastation. The floods caused immense loss, claiming at least 135 lives across Texas, with Kerr County bearing the brunt of the tragedy, reporting over 117 fatalities. Homes were destroyed, infrastructure was severely damaged, and the community faced an uphill battle for recovery. The disaster also tragically impacted popular summer camps, including Camp Mystic, underscoring the profound and far-reaching consequences of the extreme weather event. Official assessments later placed the total damage from the floods at approximately $1.1 billion (2025 USD), highlighting the immense scale of the need for aid and the urgency of Texas flood recovery efforts.
An All-Star Lineup for a Vital Texas Flood Recovery Cause
The “Deep In The Heart” benefit concert has assembled a remarkable roster of talent from the country music scene, all volunteering their time and artistry to support flood-affected communities and aid in Texas flood recovery.
