When country music’s biggest stars all come together for CMA Fest, that’s a big event! And tonight you can see some of the great performances and backstage interviews from this year’s festival. It’s all in a 3 hour special that airs at 8pm ET on ABC.
Some of the artists on the show include…Keith Urban, Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley. As well as Jason Aldean, Dierks Bentley, Luke Bryan, Kenny Chesney and more.
For the 3rd year, CMA Music Festival: Country’s Night To Rock will be hosted by CMA Vocal Group of The Year, Little Big Town. The group’s Jimi Westbrook tells us… [“It’s such an incredible thing to be at, just to be here period. We were a little shaky and nervous the first year but now we’re really comfortable. It’s been a blast. It’s such a cool thing, because we’re here for the entire thing and we get to see everybody that’s here and hang out with them and listen to them play. It’s just a great experience.”] SOUNDCUE (:16 OC: just a great experience)
