“It is an honor for our family to be able to give back to our hometown with a holiday concert that will air on Fuse. Tina grew up in Galveston and still has family and friends there and we’re fortunate to bring Beyoncé and Solange together to support the efforts of The Gulf Coast Ike Relief Fund through the Survivor Foundation.†-Mathew Knowles, father and manager
