SAN ANGELO, Texas (Concho Valley Homepage) — Coopers BBQ/LIVE! hosted a flood benefit concert on Aug. 27 for those who were affected by the July 4 floods.

"We don't believe there was enough recognition, or really, you know, attention drawn to the San Angelo area like some other areas," said Mark Cooper, Owner of Coopers BBQ/LIVE! "And we just wanted to, you know, just come together."

The concert featured 5 artists and bands, including Kat Hasty, Cooper Hamilton, Parker Ryan, Dexter & The Moonrocks and Treaty Oak Revival.

Cooper estimated that the proceeds raised are $140,000; 100% of the proceeds will go to the San Angelo Area Foundation: Disaster Relief Fund.
