Eric Church and Hank Williams Jr. kicked off the CMA Awards with the song 'Are You Ready For The Country'. The song is the lead track on Hank Jr.'s new album set for an early January release. The official video for the song is now available!

 

The songs origins go back to the 1970's. The song was actually written and originally performed by Neil Young in 1972. But a version that many country fans are already familiar with is that of the late, great Waylon Jennings, who made the song a hit in 1976. Check out Waylon's version below and see which version you prefer!
