Hazem Ouf, CEO of American Blue Ribbon Holdings the parent company of O’Charley’s.
“O’Charley’s and American Blue Ribbon Holdings are committed to this cause. In the last
eight years, this event has raised $511,032 to feed hungry children, seniors and families in

Second Harvest with the funds to supply 2,044,128 meals.”
“We are grateful for our partners that help put on a great show each year,” said Jaynee Day,
president and CEO of Second Harvest Food Bank of Middle Tennessee. “We encourage all of
our supporters and country music fans to attend and help speak out against hunger.”
This is the 9th year for Craig Wiseman to host the show for Second Harvest Food Bank at the
Ryman Auditorium and the second year to host the event during CMA Fest.
“We had such a successful show last year during CMA week and look forward to a bigger and
better show this year. With previous years having everyone from Keith Urban and Jon Bon Jovi
to Ronnie Dunn and Tim McGraw along with so many big hit songwriters playing their songs and
telling the stories promises to be the biggest and most star studded show we have ever done! We
expect to sell out as word gets out to all of those country music fans looking for a way to kick off
their first night in town with one of the coolest guitar pulls ever!” says Wiseman.
Florida Georgia Line duo—Monroe, Georgia’s Tyler Hubbard and Ormond Beach, Florida’s
Brian Kelley – has exploded on to the country music scene with their multi-week, No. 1 debut
single “Cruise.” To date, the infectious song alone has sold well over two million; reached #1
on the iTunes Country Singles Chart and helped secure them a spot on Luke Bryan’s “DIRT
ROAD DIARIES TOUR” and Taylor Swift’s “RED TOUR” in 2013. “Anytime we can give
back and help feed the hungry in our community we jump at the opportunity” says Kelley, “We
are so excited to be part of Craig’s Stars For Second Harvest Show for the second year in a row.
Hopefully we can help sell this show out and all come together and raise a lot of money for the
hungry!”
