. (Radio.com) Darius Rucker took the stage last week (June 3) at the Wildhorse Saloon in Nashville for his fourth annual Darius And Friends concert to benefit St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.

The country singer was joined onstage by Luke Bryan, Randy Houser, Dustin Lynch, Justin Moore, Sam Bush and John Cowan of New Grass Revival, Mallary Hope and Joel Crouse for an evening of performances.

"I look forward to this event all year long," Rucker said in a press statement. "I get to share the stage with some of my favorite artists, friends and musical influences."

"As much fun as it is," he continued, "it's all in the spirit of raising support for St. Jude's, an organization very dear to my heart." And raise support he did, to the tune of $95,000.

In addition to the performance, the Darius And Friends event included an auction and a celebrity golf tournament, which was held on June 4.
