Laid Back Country Picker performs "Magoffin County Cadillac" live at the Burl KY in Lexington, KY.
All across Eastern Kentucky, the damage done by the 2022 flooding is an ongoing process for recovery. In August of 2022, the Burl hosted their own EKY Flood Relief benefit that raised $40k for victims in Eastern Kentucky, with Laid Back Country Picker being one of many talented performers that night.

Three Sheets to the Wind is a project sponsored by Appalachian's for Appalachia, who share a passion for music, service, and their home state. The filmmakers that are a part of this series share years of experience working professionally within the Kentucky creative community, building a variety of projects and collaborating with many of the integral artists, businesses, and community organizations throughout our region. Through their collaboration, Three Sheets to the Wind is a platform which seeks to create artistic, visually innovative performance-based video content in collaboration with key members of the music community and nonprofits of the region in order to provide exposure to the important groups who are doing quality creative and community work.
Through each episode of Three Sheets to the Wind, musicians select a nonprofit to support. Audience members are encouraged to place donations toward that nonprofit, and will be given direction on engaging and supporting the mission of the organization.
100% of the proceeds generated by audience donations go directly to the nonprofit organization the episode is sponsoring.
Appalachians for Appalachia is a grassroots advocacy movement preparing the next generation of Appalachian leaders to drive progress in the Mountains. They develop research and policy recommendations that center justice, equity, resilience, and sustainability for our region.
