Keith Urban's benefit concert for the Country Music Hall of Fame is proving to be a huge success. On Thursday, the Hall of Fame announced that Urban's "We're All for the Hall" concert has already raised more than 500-thousand-dollars. That figure will continue to rise due to additional corporate donations and the online auction of a guitar donated by Taylor Swift. "We're All for the Hall" was held at Nashville's Sommet Center and featured performances from artists like Keith Urban, Vince Gill, Taylor Swift, Brad Paisley and Dierks Bentley. Fourteen-thousand fans were on hand to watch the show live, while nearly one-million people watched the concert via an online broadcast. A delighted Keith Urban says he's thankful for everyone who helped make the event a success, adding, quote, "I've never been so moved by the power that music has to bring people together."

Proceeds from "We're All for the Hall" will be invested in the Country Music Hall of Fame's collection of music and its schedule of school and family programs. The money will also be used to enhance the Hall's core exhibit, "Sing Me Back Home: A Journey Through Country Music."
