"We got lucky when Hurricane Harvey avoided Austin, but though it missed us, it hit our neighbors hard. Every time I’ve asked you to help our neighbors you’ve risen to the challenge," Mayor Adler says in a statement. "Now we have an opportunity to do good by being our best, and that means putting on a show and having a good time. Let’s show the world what it means to be the Live Music Capital of the World in the greatest state in the Union. I’ll be there and hope to see you, too."

11 Texas television stations will broadcast the benefit in a special one-hour, commercial free special titled Texas Strong: Harvey Can’t Mess With Texas from 9PM to 10PM CT on Sept. 22. The event will also live stream live internationally during the broadcast hour at YouTube.com/TexasStrong.

Google has pledged to match the first $500,000 of donations as part of a pledge challenge. Volunteers from Google’s Austin office and station employees from KVUE will help staff the phone banks at select station locations across Texas during the Texas Strong Hurricane Harvey benefit.
