VIDEO: AARON WATSON WANTS YOU TO "RAISE YOUR BOTTLE" FOR THE BOOT CAMPAIGN


Country artist Aaron Watson comes from a military family, and like a lot of us, his thoughts are with those who serve our country and sacrifice so much as we approach the 11th anniversary of the September 11th attacks. “I am the son of a soldier and proud of that beyond words. All my life I have watched my Dad endure hardships of all kinds because of the severe injuries he received in battle. At a very young age, I developed a tremendous amount of respect and appreciation for all the men and women who have served our country. And now I feel called to give back,” said Aaron.

Aaron has partnered with The Boot Campaign to raise money for military families through his current Patriotic single "Raise Your Bottle." ALL of the proceeds from the song's sale will directly benefit The Boot Campaign to help military families through tough economic times.

"Raise Your Bottle" is currently #2 on the Billboard Texas Regional Music chart.
