"The band was actually out of town when the flood happened and could only view the events on TV," recalls Uni Pereira of Red Carpet Rats. "However what struck me was watching the resiliency of the residents of Nashville in how quickly and effectively they responded to this tragic event. It's an honor to be involved in a relief effort such as this."
