The Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum's annual All for the Hall fundraiser will be held on the West Coast this year, a first in the event's history. All for the Hall will be held at Club Nokia in Los Angeles on Thursday, Oct. 1, with performances by Vince Gill, Emmylou Harris and Dwight Yoakam.
Attendees will be treated to a Nashville staple known as a "guitar pull." Originating in the home of Music City songwriters, guitar pulls allow the performers to swap songs, stories and personal recollections of their musical experiences.
The benefit is designated to ensure long-term financial security and to provide a safety net for the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum and its work.
Last year's event, held in New York, was hosted by Billy Bob Thornton and his band the Boxmasters, with performances by Larry Campbell, Rodney Crowell and Jerry Douglas along with Gill, Harris and Levon Helm.
Tickets are available for $750 per seat and will include a cocktail reception and dinner. A silent auction featuring one-of-a-kind Country Music experiences will precede the guitar pull. To purchase tickets or for more information, patrons may contact Holly Lane at hlane@countrymusichalloffame.com or telephone (800)852-6437.
