In a quiet and heartfelt moment, country legend Alan Jackson appeared in a short video released just 15 minutes ago—his voice calm but heavy with sorrow—as he extended his deepest sympathies to the people of Texas in the wake of the devastating floods.
Sitting by a sunlit window at his home in Franklin, Tennessee, Alan looked noticeably weary—a reminder of the health battle he’s been facing with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease. Yet, despite the toll on his body, his words carried unmistakable strength and compassion.
“Even in sickness,” he said, “my heart aches for those suffering. Texas has always meant something special to me—its people, its spirit, its grit. And now, they need us more than ever.”
Alan spoke gently but firmly, his eyes glistening as he recalled past tours and personal moments spent across the Lone Star State. “I remember the fans who came out rain or shine,” he said. “And now I pray for those same folks—some of whom have lost everything.”
In a surprising and moving gesture, he also announced that a special tribute performance—featuring unreleased acoustic recordings—would be shared online next week, with all donations and proceeds directed toward Texas flood relief funds.
“I can’t be there in person,” he said quietly, “but I can still sing for you. I can still stand with you in spirit.”
As the statement concluded, Alan added a final line that has already begun circulating among fans:
“This old heart may be tired… but it still beats strong for Texas.”
