Some of Texas' hottest musicians took to the stage Saturday night to help battle breast cancer. It was all part of the Texas Blue Grass Festival, which was held at the Harley Davidson Shop on S.P.I.D.

This free concert was designed to raise money for breast cancer.

Volunteer Ruby Garza says, "Right now we are just hoping to enjoy the music and whatever we can raise we will try to donate that to the Annie Angels for the breast cancer awareness. They just finished doing a function in Wharton, Texas."

Garza says the Annies Angel group raised $10,000 at that event last month.

You'd have to search pretty hard to find a KIII employee who knows one from the other.

Looks like "Blues", since I do not see any banjos or dobros!
