Music City Gives Back fourth annual Concert. After three successful years of top talented well attended shows, the CMA embraced Music City Gives Back and moved the stage into the official CMA Music Festival footprint downtown on Broadway at First Avenue. Rodney returned as host and welcomed Josh Thompson, Jana Kramer, Dustin Lynch and Lee Brice. Surprise guests included Justin Moore, Tyler Farr and Jerrod Niemann.
Josh Thompson is not just a songwriter but a country music artist. His talent is widely recognized by both fans and Nashville music professionals alike.
Lee Brice is a craftsman, the kind whose boundless desire to hone his skills and relentless pursuit of perfection are matched only by his humility about the entire process.
Broken Bow Records artist Dustin Lynch occupies a unique place in today’s country music. Thanks to his classic sensibilities, he’s been heralded as the heir to George Strait’s throne.
If you ask Jana Kramer to describe her life in this very moment she would say, “Dreams really do come true.”
Justin Moore's always had a thing about doing it his way. Call it stubborn redneck mettle, a well-developed case of "who I am" or just the fierce commitment to blaze a trail inherent to people from his home of Poyen, Arkansas.
