Country Music Hall of Famer and San Antonio native George Strait will perform an intimate concert and dinner later this month to benefit those affected by the devastating Texas Hill Country floods.

The Strait to the Heart benefit show will take place Sunday, July 27, at Estancia at Thunder Valley indoor arena in Boerne. In addition to Strait and members of his Ace in the Hole Band, the lineup will include William Beckmann, Ray Benson, Wade Bowen, Dean Dillon, Riley Green, Randy Houser, Jamey Johnson, Kyle Park and Hudson Westbrook.

Only 1,000 seats are available for the event, which will raise money for the nonprofit Vaqueros Del Mar Texas Flood Relief Fund to distribute to families directly affected by the floods, according to concert organizers. Organizers also said they will provide complimentary tickets to local first responders.

“The destruction and loss in our community from the recent flood is hard to wrap your head around,” Strait said in a statement. “Our hearts and prayers are with you all. The goal with this event is to raise meaningful, immediate support that can be put directly into the hands of flood victims without delay, while also honoring the first responders that work tirelessly to save lives.”

$1,000 per table and up, Sunday, July 27, Estancia at Thunder Valley, 1 Estancia Lane, Boerne, (830) 981-8405, estanciaboerne.com.
