On a late-2024 cover of “Hello In There,” St. Pete resident and folk favorite Kathleen Edwards adds another layer of tenderness to the John Prine classic.

Edwards gets help on the track from Whiskey Gentry’s Lauren Morrow (another adopted daughter of the Bay area), and they’re both at the ‘Burg’s finest listening room for for this gig that benefits the Prine family’s Hello In There nonprofit which has helped out a whole lot after back-to-back hurricanes ravaged our neighborhoods.

Feeding Pinellas Empowerment Center is the recipient of the evening’s proceedings, and the foundation will match all donations up to $10,000.

“Which means we have an opportunity to raise $20,000 to help our friends and neighbors, so many of whom have lost so much this past year,” Edwards added.

Tickets to see Kathleen Edwards play Bayboro Brewing Co. in St. Petersburg on Saturday, Jan. 25 are still available and start at $20.
