BOBBY BONES
For the third year in a row, Bobby Bones called upon his famously talented friends to play his Million Dollar Show benefitting St. Jude Children's Research Hospital at Nashville's Ryman Auditorium on Jan. 22. Since its creation, the show has raised $8 million for the hospital.
The cause is personal to Bones. "I was in the hospital a lot as a kid and didn't have any money," the radio personality tells PEOPLE. "St. Jude takes care of kids and they pay for everything — that's what drew me to them immediately."

KEITH URBAN
The guitarist brought his skills to the stage to close the show with his hit "Wasting Time."
Bones is humble about his side-gig as a musician, choosing instead to highlight the talented artists in Nashville. "I'm not that good, but I get to surround myself with awesome people," he tells PEOPLE. "I get to have great artists come out and everybody wins."
