“Helene hit the week before our Music for Mutts benefit concert,
and it only seemed right to use the event to help with hurricane
recovery efforts. Then Milton came right behind it – packing a
devastating one-two punch,” said Lambert. “Thankfully, and thanks
to all the animal loving supporters who’ve made donations to our
MuttNation-Tractor Supply Relief for Rescues Fund, we were able to
quickly get help where it was needed most. We know this will be a
very long recovery and we’re committed to helping our four-legged
friends and the people who care for them get back on their
feet.”
Music for Mutts, the 15th anniversary MuttNation Foundation
celebration presented by Tractor Supply, featured a memorable night
of performances celebrated by Billboard for “the vocal power and
camaraderie onstage” from Lambert, Little Big Town, Dan + Shay,
HARDY, Riley Green, Lukas Nelson, Ashley Monroe and Natalie Hemby,
in addition to a special opening set by Jake Worthington.
Additional artists who weren’t able to join in person also stepped
up to support MuttNation’s efforts, including Chris Stapleton,
Trisha Yearwood, Morgan Wallen and Noah Kahan.
“Caring for animals and our communities is central to Life Out
Here, and we’re passionate about giving back, especially during
times like these,” said Kimberley Gardiner, chief marketing officer
at Tractor Supply. “As the region recovers from these hurricanes,
we’re honored to lend a helping hand to shelters that have been
impacted.”
The MuttNation-Tractor Supply Relief for Rescues Fund was
founded in 2023 to raise funds specifically for disaster relief
efforts. The Fund has raised over $1 million to date and has
allocated over $600,000 to help animals, shelters and supporting
organizations after wildfires, floods, hurricanes, tornadoes and
other natural disasters. Each year, Tractors Supply stores
nationwide host an in-store donation-at-checkout drive to support
the Fund.

Critically acclaimed groundbreaker/songwriter/superstar Miranda
Lambert has defined her multi-faceted career as an artist,
entertainer, entrepreneur, advocate and businesswoman with an
unflinching quest for excellence, honesty and conviction. With her
10th solo studio album, Postcards from Texas, available everywhere
now via Republic Records, the most-awarded artist in Academy of
Country Music history, including their top honor for Entertainer of

twice-extended Velvet Rodeo residency; blurred genres with Leon
