In an unofficial kick-off to CMA Music Festival week, Darius Rucker gathered some of this buddies together for a his 1st Annual “Darius and Friends” concert to benefit the groundbreaking research and lifesaving care of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital®.

Radney Foster, Jake Owen, Randy Houser and Jamey Johnson teamed up with Darius to perform for a sold-out crowd at the Wildhorse Saloon in Nashville on Monday, June 7, 2010.  Throughout the show Darius performed his biggest hits but the highlights came by way of some very cool collaborations along the way.
