Country crooners like Jake Owner, Dierks Bentley and Hunter Hayes are known for lighting up the stages for thousands of fans on a regular basis, but now they have added Patriotism to their repertoires as well. On Veterans Day, the aforementioned stars and many more country singers will step into the spotlight to perform at an event called Stars and Strings concert. 

The concert was organized by CBS Radio as a way to honor current servicemembers and veterans.

"Our service men and women sacrifice every day to protect our country, and they deserve our appreciation and gratitude," CBS Radio VP/Country Programming and WUSN/Chicago PD Jeff Kapugi said. "Stars and Strings will salute and honor their efforts, as well as provide support and awareness to a very important and worthwhile cause."

A portion of the concert's profits will benefit Folds of Honor, a organization that provides scholarships for spouses and children of military servicemembers who were killed or disabled in action. 

Stars and Strings is scheduled for Nov. 11 at the Chicago Theatre, and tickets will go on sale Oct. 2. Little Big Town, Band Perry and Kip Moore are also slotted to perform at the event.
