"Willie Nelson-Songs for Tsunami Relief" To Be Released April 12 on CD & DVD

Proceeds From Sales of CD & DVD To Go to Disaster Relief

NASHVILLE, Tenn., Feb. 28 /PRNewswire/ -- In an effort to help the survivors of the December 26th tsunami in Southeast Asia, Texas Roadhouse and Lost Highway will release the CD and DVD of Willie Nelson's benefit concert "Willie Nelson-Songs for Tsunami Relief: From Austin to South Asia" on April 12. The January 9th benefit was held in Austin, TX, and featured Willie Nelson, The Joe Ely Band, Spoon, Patti Griffin, Alejandro Escovedo, Jon Dee Graham, Bruce Robison, Kelly Willis, and a special appearance by Natalie Maines of the Dixie Chicks. Proceeds from the sale of "Willie Nelson-Songs for Tsunami Relief" will be donated to the tsunami relief and rebuilding efforts of C.A.R.E. and UNICEF.

In the wake of the most tragic event of our generation, music legend Willie Nelson and fellow Texas musicians want to extend their hands beyond the January 9th benefit by offering the DVD and CD to the public in the hopes that everyone will help out by purchasing them.

The "Willie Nelson-Songs for Tsunami Relief" concert was produced by Austin native Michael Hall who, in his own words, "wanted to write more than a check."

So many have volunteered their time to help create the DVD and CD in order to raise as much as possible as quickly as possible. Both will be available April 12 at http://www.willies-corner.com/ and distributed by Texas Roadhouse restaurants and Lost Highway.

Please consider coverage of these releases in order to help in the relief and rebuilding effort of this tragedy.
