Country music star Tracy Lawrence is playing a free show at Hood Stadium on Thursday night as part of the Ben Hogan Foundation’s two-day appreciation event for military families.
The multiplatinum, award-winning recording artist has had 22 songs on the Billboard top 10 charts, 18 No. 1 singles and sold more than 13 million albums. Lawrence is best known for songs “Paint Me A Birmingham,” “Time Marches On,” “Alibis,” and “Find Out Who Your Friends Are.”
“I love the positive feel I get from military folks,” Lawrence said during a phone interview from his home in Nashville, Tenn. “They sacrifice a whole lot for us and it’s important for us to show we appreciate what they do and the sacrifice they make. I’m gone for weeks at a time periodically and that’s nothing compared to these folks who are gone for a year or two ... and to be in harm’s way at the same time. I have a lot of respect for them.”
This will be the first outside entertainer to host a show at the new venue.
