Four of the biggest stars in country music joined together at the Grammys on Sunday night to pay tribute to the victims of the Las Vegas shooting with a powerful performance.

Eric Church, Maren Morris and Brothers Osborne all performed at the Route 91 Harvest Music Festival in Las Vegas in October when a gunman opened fire on thousands of fans resulting in the death of 58 innocent people. On Sunday those artist paid tribute to the victims with an acoustic rendition of Eric Clapton’s “Tears in Heaven.”

The performance was one of the more sobering moments of the night, reminding viewers of the horror that occurred in Las Vegas just a few months ago. The touching moment was also followed by another powerful performance by Kesha, who performed in solidarity with the “Me Too” and “Time’s up” movements.

It’s been a troubling year for music with people committing terrorist attacks at an Ariana Grande concert in Manchester, as well as the shooting in Vegas. It’s good to see that these leaders in the industry will never forget.
