Little Big Town
Reigning CMA Vocal Group of the Year Little Big Town will host the ABC-TV special CMA Music Festival: Country’s Night To Rock for the third time. The band made the announcement at a ribbon-cutting ceremony for CMA Music Festival at the AT&T U-verse Fan Fair X earlier this week. The show, executive-produced by Robert Deaton, will air August 4 at 8 p.m. ET.
“We are honored to host this incredible party for another year,” said LBT’s Jimi Westbrook. “We look forward to this week all year long, and being able to spend all four days with the fans is just incredible. Big thanks to ABC and the CMA for having us back!”
The “Girl Crush” quartet has had plenty of fun hosting the entertainment-packed concert special, and some bloopers from their previous years as hosts can be seen below.
This year marks the eleventh year the show will air on ABC, and the network is slated to air the special through 2021.
