All Profits From Whiskey Myers’ Merch Store Will Be Donated To Texas Flood Relief… Through The End Of The Week

Whiskey Myers doing what they can to help their fellow Texans.

Much like the Carolinas were hit hard with flash flooding in September of last year, South-central Texas was ravaged by flash flooding over the 4th of July weekend. Over 11o people have already been confirmed deceased, and Camp Mystic – a Christian girls camp located in Texas Hill Country – reported Monday that it is currently grieving the unfathomable loss of 27 campers and counselors.

And the tragedy continues to unfold. While dozens of people are still unaccounted for, and we won’t know the official toll and extent of the damage for weeks (if not months), what we do know is that the South-central Texas area currently needs all the help it can get to recover and pick up the pieces. That’s where Whiskey Myers – a southern rock and country band from Palestine, Texas – comes in.

We all know that music is healing, and in times of distress, the people who make the music are the ones who often step up. That was evident when Eric Church and Luke Combs put together the Concert for Carolina benefit, which raised over $24 million for disaster relief. And now with the devastating flooding in Texas, bands like Whiskey Myers are stepping to help how they can.

Whiskey Myers posted this message to their social media accounts, giving their condolences and letting fans know that any profit from merchandise sales on their site from July 4th all the way to the end of this week would be donated to flood relief efforts in Texas:

“Our hearts are with our neighbors across Texas dealing with the devastating aftermath of this week’s floods. We’ve been heartbroken by the stories of the lives lost – and deeply inspired by the moments of heroism and humanity in the face of disaster.

We’ll be donating the net of Whiskey Myers online merchandise sales to support relief efforts on the ground, starting from the moment the storms hit and continuing through the end of the week.”

The band then shared that they are working on another way to giveback by partnering with Soundwave Creative, which specializes in making collectible based media. It’s not entirely clear what that partnership will look like, but Whiskey Myers says they’ll have more to share on that in the coming days:

“In addition to this, we are working with our partners at Soundwaves Creative who feel just as strongly about this heartbreaking tragedy as we do. Whiskey Myers and Soundwaves Creative will be creating a really special opportunity to help as well. More on that next week.”

And finally, the group that brought to life songs like “Broken Window Serenade” and “The Wolf” stated strongly that Texas means everything to them, and they are more than happy to step in and help in any way that they can:

“Texas is home. We stand with the communities picking up the pieces, and we’re committed to doing what we can to help.”

Classy move by Whiskey Myers.

And like what Whiskey Myers is doing with their online merchandise store, Charles Wesley Godwin is donating any sales from his store to Texas flood relief efforts. So if you’ve had your eye on some Whiskey Myers or Charles Wesley Godwin merch for a while, now would be the perfect time to place that order.The post All Profits From Whiskey Myers’ Merch Store Will Be Donated To Texas Flood Relief… Through The End Of The Week first appeared on Whiskey Riff.
