Dierks Bentley Announces Dallas-Area "Miles & Music For Kids"

Dierks Bentley is prepping for his next "Miles & Music For Kids" event. He's taking his charity motorcycle ride and concert to the Dallas-Fort Worth area this spring. The fundraiser will include a ride from Harley-Davidson of North Texas in Carrollton, Texas to Billy Bob's Texas in Fort Worth, which will host the concert. But Bentley doesn't want to reveal who will be performing with him. He notes, quote, "I'm going to try and keep all my special guests a secret for as long as I can...I'll just say that they are five of my favorite Texas country artists, and you better get there early because if you don't, they will drink all the beer." Money raised through the event will go to the Children's Medical Center Dallas and Cook Children's in Fort Worth. Bentley's Dallas-area "Miles & Music For Kids" is set for April 25th. Tickets go on sale Monday.

The Dallas-area benefit will be Bentley's third "Miles & Music For Kids" event in six months. The country star's 4th annual "Miles & Music For Kids" took place in Nashville last October. In November Bentley took the event to his hometown of Phoenix, Arizona, which was his first fundraiser outside Nashville. He's also hoping to host the event this year in Seattle, Atlanta, and Chicago.
