Trace Adkins and NASCAR driver Danica Patrick have signed on to co-host the fourth annual American Country Awards, which will air live from Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas on Tuesday, Dec. 10 (8:00-10:00 PM ET live/PT tape-delayed) on FOX.
This is Adkins’ fourth year serving as a host of the awards show. “I can’t wait to see if I have what it takes to keep up with this racing superstar,” said Adkins.
In addition to his hosting duties, Adkins will be joined by legendary drummer Kenny Aronoff and other guests for a special performance of “Carol of the Drum” (otherwise known as “Little Drummer Boy”). The song is featured on Adkins’ recently announced Celtic-infused Christmas album, The King’s Gift.
The American Country Awards offers fans the opportunity to vote for their favorite artists, albums, singles, videos and touring artists. Nominees, performers and presenters have yet to be announced for the fourth annual American Country Awards.
