Hundreds of other musicians also store their instruments and equipment there. Ben Jumper, the owner of the storage business, said he expected his losses would amount to tens of millions of dollars.
The floodwaters damaged or destroyed many other businesses and homes in the city. On May sixth, country music star Kenny Chesney posted a video on YouTube. It shows the floodwaters on his property. He asked for help for people affected by the flooding.
KENNY CHESNEY: "This is my property here in Nashville, Tennessee. I’ve got thirty-nine acres here and you can see it’s all under about ten to twelve feet of water. I live right on the river. I want to urge all of you guys to do whatever you can to help the people of Nashville. As long as I’ve been here this is the toughest thing that’s ever happened to this city and I want to urge everybody out there to give whatever you can – as little as you can or as much as you can — to give something because there’s a lot of people really hurting right now.
"I lost a big portion of this property but there’s a lot of people in this city who have lost their lives and their livelihoods. So please -- toothbrush, toothpaste, two dollars, twenty dollars, two hundred dollars, two thousand dollars, whatever. It all adds up and it all goes to a good cause. Keep Nashville, Tennessee, in your prayers."
