KRTY TEAMS WITH ERIC CHURCH, JUSTIN MOORE AND KIP MOORE TO RAISE $6,300 FOR ST JUDES

Congratulations to one of the best mainstream stations out there, KRTY/San Jose, who plays the best new music and somewhat bucks the whole concept of "industry politics" by making their music selections based on what their listeners actually want to hear and give new artists a chance to shine. KRTY has 3 of the best and fan friendliest DJ's in the industry - Indiana Al, Renee and Eric Steel.

They raised $6,300 for St. Jude Children's Hospital with the help of Justin Moore, Kip Moore and Eric Church. Following the Blood Sweat And Beers tour stop in San Jose on Friday, November 9, the party continued at Rodeo Club where Justin Moore performed an acoustic set for 1,000 fans who paid $10 at the door or $5 if they produced a ticket stub from the BS and B show. KRTY's Nate Deaton told Country Aircheck, "Justin played for an hour, then Kip came up and played "Somethin' 'Bout A Truck." Church, who planned on just hanging out, jumped onstage and played 'Chevy Van' and 'Two Pink Lines.' Justin donated every dime at the door to St. Jude kids; it was amazing."
