This is the latest in a series of free Saturday performances that not only aims to entertain home-bound fans but also help those in need. The Opry and Circle have partnered with MusicCares’ #Unbroken campain to raise money for artists and music professionals affected by the crisis. Viewers can text “UNBROKEN” to 41444 to donate during the show.

Between sets, Bones will also let viewers know how to contribute to Verizon’s Pay It Forward Live initiative benefiting small business impacted by the pandemic. The exclusive concert series kicked off March 26 with Dave Matthews, and has continued in recent weeks with Alicia Keys, OneRepublic frontman Ryan Tedder, country superstar Luke Bryan, Grammy-winning siblings Billie Eilish and Finneas, pop star Janelle Monáe and hip-hop hitmaker Chance the Rapper.

Over the course of Pay It Forward Live, viewers are encouraged to do what they can to support local businesses in their own communities by shopping online, buying a gift card to be used when businesses reopen or ordering a meal. Verizon will donate $10, up to $2.5 million, to support small businesses for each use of the hashtag #PayItForwardLive on top of the company’s $7.5 million pledge.
