ST. PETERSBURG --

St. Pete's downtown music venue Jannus Live is giving you an opportunity to help the families of Tampa's fallen officers David Curtis and Jeffrey Kocab.

The officers were killed during a traffic stop on June 29th.

This Sunday, Jannus Live is hosting a family friendly line-up of bay area bands that kicks off at 3:00 pm.

Performer Amber Lynn Nicol is opening the show.

She wrote a song in honor of the officers.

Tampa Bay On Demand's Virginia Johnson talked with another performer.

Jay Hajj is the lead signer of Live Wire, and also a Hillsborough County Deputy Sheriff.

"I'm a motorcycle officer, and I was part of the escort that escorted his family on the day of the funeral up north where they live. I was honored to be a part of that also."

This is a "pay what you can" event.

All proceeds go to the families of the fallen officers.

Jannus Live is located in downtown St. Pete, at the corner of 1st Avenue North and 2nd Street North.
