ACM Performances

The 56th ACM awards are this Sunday, the 18th and there are a hefty amount of duets slated for this years ceremony! Dierks Bentley announced a duet with new country artists, The War and Treaty. They are set to perform a cover of U2’s “Pride.” Kelsea Ballerini will be performing with Kenny Chesney and introducing their brand new single, Maren Morris and Ryan Hurd will also introduce a new song this Sunday as well. Country stars, Elle King and Miranda Lambert, are also slated to perform their latest hit, “Drunk!” It will be an amazing night for sure! You can tune in this Sunday night on CBS.

All Virtual

Today kicks off our virtual red carpet for this years ACM awards with tons of interviews from your favorite artists! Tracy will sit down with Dierks, The War and Treaty, Lady A, Elle King, Brothers Osborne, Luke Combs and a whole lot more! They, of course, will take place over Zoom, the ACM awards, however, will have an audience this year and will follow CDC guidelines. I think everyone is interested to see how it all plays out.
