Emotions ran high as artists shared how they were personally affected by the recent disasters.
Randy Owen of country greats Alabama delivered a somber message before launching into “My Home’s In Alabama”, saying “In our home state of Alabama, we’ve lost — so far — 238. These are people that we knew and friends of ours. We need your help.” Watch Alabama’s performance of “My Home’s In Alabama” below, and go to CMT.com to view more of last night’s performances.
