Nashville has always been a city that takes care of its own. On May 1, let’s come together, lift each other up, and make a difference for Cora and her family.
(PRUnderground) April 18th, 2025
Cora Fuller should be spending her days running, laughing, and playing like any five-year-old. Instead, she’s facing something no child should have to endure: leukemia. With the strength of a warrior, she fights every day, with her parents, Sean and Katie Fuller, and her sister Mckenna by her side. But no family should have to go through this alone.
On May 1, 2025, the Nashville music community is coming together at City Winery Nashville for A Night for Cora, a benefit concert to ease the financial burden of treatment and remind the Fullers that they have an entire city standing with them.
Organized by Wake Up to Love, in collaboration with the Make Em Smile Foundation, this event is about more than music—it’s about community, compassion, and action. Every ticket sold and every auction bid placed will directly support Cora’s fight against leukemia.
When a community comes together for something bigger than itself, incredible things happen.

A Lineup You Won’t Want to Miss
The night will be filled with unforgettable performances from artists who are coming together to support Cora and her family. Headlining the event is Rizz & The Believerz, known for their high-energy rock-reggae fusion sound. Joining them is Tyler Hubbard, the voice behind Florida Georgia Line’s biggest hits, along with country star Tyler Farr (“Redneck Crazy”), Heidi Newfield (“Johnny & June”), and Jerry Flowers, a longtime bassist and songwriter for Keith Urban.
Plus, we’re honored to welcome a special guest performance from Blessing Offor—Cora’s favorite artist.
The evening begins with an intimate writer’s round, where some of Nashville’s top songwriters will share the stories behind their songs before the full-band performances take over the stage.
Bid on Music History
This isn’t just any auction—it’s a chance to own pieces of music history while making a difference. One of the most prized items up for grabs? A Mötley Crüe guitar signed by all original members, complete with a certificate of authenticity. Also available: exclusive drum kits and rare memorabilia from some of the biggest names in music. With both silent and live auctions happening throughout the night, this is your chance to take home something extraordinary while standing behind Cora and her family.
