On Sunday, March 22, 2026, the Arizona country music family will come together at The Stillery Chandler for a special night of music and support as artists from across the state rally around fellow musician Brandon Head during his battle with cancer.
The event, titled “Artists for Brandon,” will take place from 3:00 PM to 9:00 PM, bringing together a full afternoon and evening of live country music performed by some of Arizona’s most talented artists.
The fundraiser is being organized through AZDCMA Cares – Country Community Outreach and made possible thanks to the support of The Stillery Chandler and Cowboy Lifestyle Network, two organizations that have continually supported the Arizona country music scene.
More than just a concert, the night represents something deeper — a reminder that the Arizona country community stands together when one of its own needs help.
Arizona country artist Brandon Head has become a familiar name around the Valley performing with his band Twisted Trails. Known for his gritty, authentic style and powerful live performances, Brandon represents the kind of hardworking independent artist that makes the Arizona music scene so special.
Whether performing at local venues, festivals, or sharing the stage with fellow musicians, Brandon has built strong friendships throughout the community. Those friendships are now being returned in full force as artists across Arizona step forward to support him.
