The 56th Annual ACM Awards are just under two weeks away. Now we have another piece of the puzzle on what the show will look like as the performers for the ceremony were announced Monday.
Entertainer of the Year nominees Thomas Rhett, Luke Combs, Eric Church, Luke Bryan and Chris Stapleton (along with his wife Morgane Stapleton) will all take the stage. Exciting collaborations will also take place for the first time on television as Kelsea Ballerini & Kenny Chesney, Carrie Underwood & CeCe Winans, Chris Young & Kane Brown, and husband and wife Maren Morris & Ryan Hurd will all perform duets. Miranda Lambert will be singing twice, once with ‘The Marfa Tapes’ partners Jon Randall and Jack Ingram, and again with ‘Drunk (And I Don’t Wanna Go Home)’ partner Elle King.
Hosts for the ceremony Mickey Guyton and Keith Urban will both take the stage. Nominated artists Brothers Osborne, Ashley McBryde, Little Big Town, Carly Pearce, Dan + Shay, Dierks Bentley and Lee Brice are all slated to perform. Rounding out the announced performances are first-time ACM performers The War and Treaty and someone who is no stranger to the ACM stage, the legendary Alan Jackson.
