the
Civil Wars capped a night of eclectic music at the Grammy Block Party in Nashville on Tuesday evening (May 10). Presented
by the Recording Academy, the concert was held in Owen Bradley Park on Music Row and open to Grammy members and their guests.
The academy's charitable organization, MusiCares, announced that more than $1 million has been donated to flood victims since
last May. NasH20, another flood-relief organization, then presented a check to MusiCares for $26,000. The money was raised
through the auction of flood-damaged guitars provided by artists like
Vince Gill,
Brad
Paisley and
Keith Urban.

hip-hop artist Chancellor Warhol, jazz guitarist Denny Jiosa,
Old Crow Medicine
Show and Christian rockers Royal Tailor also performed at the event.
