TYLER HUBBARD HONORS AMERICA’S FALLEN HEROES WITH PERFORMANCE AT TUNNEL TO TOWERS EVENT

Yesterday (9.29), 22x No. 1 country hitmaker Tyler Hubbard delivered a special performance at the 23rd annual Tunnel To Towers 5K Run and Walk in New York City. Despite the rain, 40,000 participants re-traced the final steps of FDNY Firefighter Stephen Siller from the foot of the Brooklyn-Battery Tunnel to the Twin Towers. Proceeds from the event support the Foundation's programs to provide mortgage-free homes to America's heroes and eradicate Veteran homelessness nationwide.

Just past the finish line, Hubbard joined Tunnel to Towers Chairman & CEO Frank Siller in welcoming participants, supporters, Gold Star families, fallen first responder families, injured veterans, and first responders, for a special memorial processional honoring the first responders lost on 9/11. Afterward, Hubbard took the stage for an hour-long performance within a block of the 9/11 Memorial and Freedom Tower

The event coincided with the release of Hubbard's new song, "Heroes " (9.27), paying tribute to America's everyday heroes.

Hubbard embarks on the Australia leg of his 'Strong World Tour' this Friday (10.4). For more information on Tyler Hubbard, visit tylerhubbardofficial.com.
