Blackbird PresentsA concert special featuring highlights from the 2018 edition of country-rock veteran Charlie Daniels‘ Volunteer Jam, filmed March 7 at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena, will premiere on AXS TV this Sunday, August 19, at 10 p.m. ET.

The show, titled Volunteer Jam XX: A Tribute to Charlie Daniels, is headlined by The Charlie Daniels Band, and also features performances by Lynyrd Skynyrd and ZZ Top‘s Billy Gibbons, along with country stars Alabama, The Oak Ridge Boys, Travis Tritt, Chris Young, Sara Evans, Eddie Montgomery and Ricky Skaggs

In addition, the concert featured a tribute to the late Gregg Allman that included renditions of the Allman Brothers Band classics “Blue Sky” and “Midnight Rider” performed by Gregg’s son Devon, ex-Allman Brothers guitarist Dickey Betts‘ son Duane and former Allmans keyboardist Chuck Leavell.

At the concert, Gibbons sang the ZZ Top classic “La Grange,” Lynyrd Skynyrd played their signature song “Sweet Home Alabama,” and The Charlie Daniels Band performed their best-known hit, “The Devil Went Down to Georgia.” Bringing the concert to a close, all the performers joined together for a performance of the Allman Brothers’ “One Way Out.”
