Willie Nelson, Kelly Clarkson & More To Play 'We're Texas' Benefit Concert

Matthew McConaughey's "Were Texas" virtual benefit show is stacked with performers.

Earlier this week, the Hollywood titan and his wife Camila Alves McConaughey announced the launch of the concert for their home state of Texas after the devastating winter storm in February that left residents with burst pipes. Among the stars set to play the upcoming show, which has been scheduled for Sunday (March 21) at 8 PM ET, include Willie Nelson, Kelly Clarkson, Don Henley, Gary Clark Jr., George Strait, Kacey Musgraves, Khalid, Kirk Franklin, Leon Bridges, Lukas Nelson, Lyle Lovett, Miranda Lambert, Parker McCollum, Post Malone and Randy Rogers.

"A lot of Texans are hurting right now," McConaughey said in a statement. "After the disaster of the worst freeze here in over 70 years, so many are still without clean water, and unable to repair water damage that has made their homes unlivable. One of my favorite things about Texans is that we like to help ourselves, and while that spirit is still alive and well, a lot of Texans can’t help themselves right now unless we help them. The We’re Texas Virtual Event features an all-star lineup of Texas talent for a night to restore Texas. It’s time."

Meanwhile, over on his Instagram account, the actor revealed that "100% of all the donations will benefit so many organizations on the ground now and in the months to come,” before sharing a link to donate to his just keep livin Foundation.

Among the celebrities scheduled to appear include Angie Harmon, Chip & Joanna Gaines, Clayton Kershaw, Dak Prescott, Dr. Phil McGraw, Jamie Foxx, Jennifer Garner, Joe Rogan, Jonas Brothers, Marcus Lemonis, Megan Thee Stallion, Renée Zellweger, Selena Gomez, Troy Aikman and Woody Harrelson.

The show will be available to stream via McConaughey's YouTube account, as well as via Spectrum News 1 across Texas.
