Little Big Town will perform at the Music Biz 2017 Convention’s Awards Breakfast & Presentations, beginning at 8:30 a.m. CT on May 17 at the Renaissance Nashville Hotel.
Sponsored by the CMA, the breakfast will also feature awards presentations to Universal Music Group Nashville Chairman and CEO Mike Dungan, who will receive the Presidential Award for Outstanding Executive Achievement, and Music Millennium Founder Terry Currier, who will receive the Independent Spirit Award.
“We are thrilled to have Little Big Town — our Music Biz 2016 Artist of the Year — back for our 2017 convention,” said Music Biz President James Donio. “Since we last saw them, the group has released a brand new album, The Breaker; has had a multi-week No. 1 with ‘Better Man’ and recently released the critically-acclaimed single ‘Happy People’ to country radio; and has become the first act ever to lock down a residency at the historic Ryman Auditorium. We are huge fans of their music and cannot wait to share their talent with our Awards Breakfast attendees.”
During the breakfast Music Biz Chairman Fred Beteille of Facebook will also announce the 2017-2018 Music Biz Board of Directors and Music Biz Scholarship Foundation Class of 2017.
