For the third straight year, local musicians and volunteers will descend on the corner of Trade and Tryon streets to raise awareness and support for those who need a helping hand in the community. The Queen City Hope benefit concert will take place on Oct. 4 at 6 p.m., with this year’s beneficiary Charlotte Rescue Mission providing a hands-on service project on-site at the event. The free concert will include performances from recording artists Dae-Lee, Gabriel Bello, KC & Julie, Mike Shelton and Royal – all artists who call Charlotte “home.”
