Morgan Wallen, HARDY, Lainey Wilson, ERNEST, and Bailey Zimmerman will take the stage on the Topgolf green to raise money, and awareness for ACM Lifting Lives in Texas on Wednesday, May 10, at Topgolf The Colony. The event will occur one day before the 58th ACM Awards on May 11. The ACM Awards will air live on Amazon Prime from Frisco, Texas.

Morgan said in a statement, "ACM Lifting Lives does great work providing aid in times of need to folks inside and outside of the music industry. My band and I are excited to help them raise funds to continue doing this amazing work."

ACM Lifting Lives Executive Director Lyndsay Cruz said, "The support of Country Music artists and the industry as a whole are who make the impactful work of ACM Lifting Lives possible. We are so thankful to Morgan, HARDY, Lainey, ERNEST, Bailey, and DJ 13lackbeard for volunteering their time to help us raise money and awareness, and we know music fans in Texas will be blown away by this all-star lineup!"

In addition to distributing more than $4 million to date through its Covid Relief Fund, ACM Lifting Lives provides critical support through the Diane Holcomb Emergency Relief Fund, significant annual commitments to Vanderbilt Children's Hospital, Music Health Alliance, and the Ryan Seacrest Foundation, and individual grants to organizations that reach communities all across America.

Tickets will be available for a general public on-sale beginning this Friday, March 24, at 10 a.m. CST through AXS. The concert will start at approximately 7:30 p.m. CST. All proceeds benefit ACM Lifting Lives.

Wallen said in a recent interview that he is currently single. He noted, "I had a girlfriend for a while. Not recently. That was the last one I had. I don't have anybody right now. It's kind of hard. Just how busy I've been. I got a son, an album, a tour; I've got all these things I do."

He added, "It's really hard for me to make time for that. I want to, though. I think I'm coming up on my 'settle down phase.' We'll see. I'm not in a hurry."

Morgan Wallen releases his 36-song album One Thing At A Time today (3/3), and tonight he plays a free arena show concert for fans in Nashville.

When he announced the new project, he said in a statement, "This record represents the last few years of my life, the highs and the lows. It also brings together the musical influences that have shaped me as an artist – country, alternative, and hip-hop. There are 36 songs on this album because we just kept exploring with fresh lyrics, music, and production ideas, and these are the songs that felt right to me. It was a blast to create, and I was so grateful to be back in the studio to lay this out for my fans."
