On March 2, a powerful EF-4 tornado ripped through Henryville, Indiana, killing at least 3 people and the storm severely damaged Henryville Elementary and Henryville Jr/Sr High School.  Lady Antebellum held a contest offering a high school the chance at a private concert (Own the Prom) by the group. After hearing the story of Henryville, the group decided to award the students the private show, after neighboring Silver Creek High School submitted the winning video:

However, due to scheduling conflicts, Lady A would be unable to play at Henryville High's prom. Instead, the group is holding a benefit concert-"Rebuilding Henryville" at the KFC Yum! Center in Louisville on May 16th. Tickets for the benefit show will go on sale Friday, April 27th at 10am EASTERN and are available through all Ticketmaster outlets, including ticketmaster.com, the KFC Yum! Center, Kentucky Exposition Center and the Kentucky International Convention Center ticket offices. Net proceeds raised from the concert will remain local through the New Hope/Indiana Bankers Association Disaster Relief Fund. Fans unable to attend can make a donation here.

92.5 WBKR will have tickets for giveaways soon! Stay tuned to The Country Station!
