"All of us at Basis Entertainment appreciate the mission behind Music & Miracles Superfest and we are excited to bring it to Jordan-Hare stadium for its second year," said Gary Dewaard, owner of Basis Entertainment. "It was a sold-out show last year and raised money and awareness for two very important causes. We have an amazing line-up again for 2017 and expect to make more miracles a reality for the Auburn community."

The concert will also feature country stars, Thomas Rhett and Kelsea Ballerini, as well as newcomer, David Ray, and rock-n-roll icon Lynyrd Skynryd. Kevin Brown, the late co-founder of Chicken Salad Chick, hosted the previous event.

"Kevin was always at work, even during his treatment, planning this concert. It became his purpose and his drive right up to the end," said his widow and Chicken Salad Chick co-founder, Stacy Brown, in the release. "It was Kevin's dream to make history, to make music and to make miracles at Jordan-Hare. 

"Even though he was no longer with us physically when concert happened last April, it was such a magical night, we all knew Kevin was still working hard to make it perfect! This time, the goal is the same—to party with a purpose so we can make miracles happen for those in need."
