Several country stars are showing their support for farmers across the country through music.

Dustin Lynch, Maddie & Tae, Travis Denning, Mickey Guyton and Tyler Farr are all set to perform at a virtual concert on December 9 in support of Farm Rescue, a nonprofit that focuses on helping farmers suffering from illness, injury or natural disaster.

The John Deere hosted show, dubbed "The Farm Must Go On," will start at 8PM ET at Brooklyn Bowl in Nashville. The concert will be available for fans to watch virtually on YouTube for free, although donations are encouraged as all money raised will go to Farm Rescue.

"The impact of COVID-19 has been felt by everyone throughout the country and around the world. Farmers are no exception," Bill Gross, President and Founder of Farm Rescue said in a statement. "COVID highlights the vulnerability of family farms — when something unpredicted happens, not only is the family carrying that health burden, but also the pressure to produce, and the stresses of maintaining a viable operation."

Lynch gave details about the show with fans on his Instagram Story on Thursday (October 29), saying the concert is "gonna be epic."

"John Deere and Farm Rescue share something special — our work is driven by a commitment to empower the livelihoods of farmers. For John Deere, it’s about the machines, technologies, and services that enable farmers to become more profitable and sustainable, despite the challenges and uncertainty they face," Nate Clark, president of the John Deere Foundation, said. "For Farm Rescue, it’s providing a rich system of support including machines and volunteers that lend a hand when farmers and their families face an unexpected situation that threatens their very livelihoods. We are excited to host this event which allows us to celebrate and amplify the important work of farmers, their families, and Farm Rescue."
