NASHVILLE, TENN - October 2, 2008 - Wade Bowen returns to host his 11th annual "Wade Bowen Classic" concert and celebrity golf tournament to benefit Postpartum Support International (PSI) on Nov. 2-3 in Waco, TX.

The all-star concert kicks off the two-day event at the Heart of Texas Fairground GE Building at 7:00pm on Nov. 2 featuring Bowen and friends, including Cross Canadian Ragweed with more guest announcements in the coming weeks. The golf tournament the next day is a two-man scramble and will take place at beautiful Cottonwood Creek Golf Course in Waco.

"I'm so proud of how this event has grown and how everyone has come together to raise so much money," said Bowen. "This year we are partnering with PSI, which hits really close to home for me because my wife battled postpartum depression after the birth of our first child, and I know how severely it can affect families. Believe me when I tell you that it is a cause that needs more awareness."

Tickets for the both portions of the weekend are available through www.wadebowen.com/bowenclassic and start at $15. In the two previous years, the "Wade Bowen Classic" has raised almost $60,000.

Postpartum Support International (PSI) is a non-profit organization devoted to promoting awareness, prevention and treatment of mental health issues related to childbearing. PSI works tirelessly to support, educate, research and advocate for women who experience emotional changes and mental illness during pregnancy and postpartum.
