Multi-platinum recording artist Billy Ray Cyrus, his wife Tish Cyrus and daughter Brandi attended the Starkey Hearing Foundation’s 12th annual “So The World May Hear” Gala on August 4, 2012 at the Saint Paul RiverCentre. The country music singer/songwriter/actor brought the house down with his performance.
 
“It is about the gift of love. It is just incredible that they go all around the world to give people their first chance ever to hear, to sing, to dance, to communicate. It is an honor and a privilege to be a part of it,” shared Cyrus when asked about the Foundation.
 
The evening’s soiree brings awareness to and benefits the organization’s efforts to give the gift of hearing. Starkey Hearing Foundation fits more than 100,000 hearing aids to people in need in the U.S. and around the world each year and has conducted missions in more than 97 countries.
 
Currently, Cyrus is in the studio putting the finishing touches on his forthcoming album titled Change My Mind to be released October 23. He is set to make his debut in the Broadway play Chicago on Nov. 5, and will continue his run through Dec. 23.
