WHEELING — Fans of the local music scene looking to help with flood relief, this event’s for you: a daylong rock festival set for July 5 at River City Restaurant in Wheeling.

At least a dozen local performers already have signed on to be part of The Rise Up Flood Relief Festival. The event, which begins at 11 a.m and runs until midnight, will support families affected by the recent devastating floods in Valley Grove and Triadelphia.

The full day of music will span a wide range of genres. Confirmed performers include Donnie Decena, Whiskey Rider, Paul Shearer, Jeff Tappe, Jule Carenbauer, Bob Gaudio, Atomic Shindig, The Council, Adrian Niles Trio, Luke Burkhardt, and the Logan Wojcik Band, with OVDJ Productions keeping the crowd going between acts.

All proceeds will go directly to Appalachian Outreach, a local nonprofit providing relief and long-term recovery assistance to flood victims in the region. Tickets are not needed; rather, donations are encouraged. Donations also can be made online at: www.paypal.com/fundraiser/charity/113901.

Attendees are encouraged to bring friends and family, enjoy the music, and contribute what they can to the cause.

“This is more than a concert–it’s a call to action,” event organizers said. “We want to show the world what the Ohio Valley is all about: having our neighbors’ backs in times of need. Be cool and be kind. Exist and be decent.”
