Pictured (L-R): Lynyrd Skynyrd, Brantley Gilbert
A decade after Lynyrd Skynyrd made their first appearance on the music series CMT Crossroads (with Montgomery Gentry, 2004), the rockers return to the Franklin, Tenn. stage for a collaboration with Brantley Gilbert on Saturday, June 27 at 9 p.m. CT on CMT.
Gilbert will release Just As I Am Platinum Edition on May 18, which features five unreleased tracks, in addition to a remix of the chart-topping “Bottoms Up” featuring rapper T.I.
On May 17, Gilbert will vie for Top Country Artist and Top Country Album at the Billboard Music Awards, airing live from Las Vegas on ABC at 8/7c. The Georgia native took home the first fan-voted Renegade Award earlier this year at the iHeartRadio Music Awards. He will join Kenny Chesney’s The Big Revival Tour for select dates this summer.
CMT Crossroads is produced by Kathryn Russ. John Hamlin, Margaret Comeaux and Bill Flanagan serve as executive producers for CMT.
