CMA Music Fest TV Special Dates Change

Written by: MissMolly On July - 18 - 2011

Country’s Night to Rock Postponed One Week from Original Date.

The CMA Music Festival television special,CMA Music Festival: Country’s Night To Rock, has been rescheduled. The 3-hour show was originally set to air on Sunday, August 7th, but is now slated for exactly one week later, Sunday, August 14th. CMA representatives indicate it is just a simple schedule change, but it is speculated that the network probably did not want to have to compete with the Teen Choice Awards which are scheduled to air live on August 7th. Either way, fans still get the show, and that’s what matters.

The show will remain as previously announced including footage from this year’s CMA Music Festival in Nashville and live performances from some of country’s hottest stars. Performers include Brad Paisley, Jason Aldean collaborating with Kelly Clarkson, Dierks Bentley, Josh Turner with American Idol winner Scotty McCreery, Idol runner up Lauren Alaina joining Martina McBride, Gretchen Wilson with Big & Rich, Little Big Town, Kid Rock and Sheryl Crow, Alan Jackson performing with Zac Brown Band, The Band Perry, Sara Evans, Lady Antebellum, Miranda Lambert, Rascal Flatts, Reba, Darius Rucker, Blake Shelton, Sugarland, Taylor Swift and Keith Urban.

So, don’t miss out on CMA Music Festival: Country’s Night To Rock on its new night, Sunday, August 14th at 8pm on ABC.

Most often, when I see Kellie Pickler, she is being low key, silly and a whole lot of fun. She is obviously a laid back kind of gal with a really great sense of humor. That being said, it’s interesting to see the flip side of that, and hear her being more serious and insightful. In a recent video posted on her YouTube channel, Pickler is filling in fans on her emotional connection to new song “Someone Somewhere Tonight,” and the story behind the lyrics. It hasn’t been released yet, but this will definitely make you excited to hear more. Check it out below!
