The 2019 CMT Music Awards are taking over downtown Nashville on Wednesday night (June 5), and in advance of the big event, some of country music's biggest names have been getting ready for their performances during the annual awards show.
The 2019 CMT Music Awards will feature an historic number of performers for the annual show. This year's event will include performances from Kelsea Ballerini, Dan + Shay, Luke Bryan, Carrie Underwood, Keith Urban, Luke Combs and more. In addition to those solo performances, Brandi Carlile and Tanya Tucker will collaborate, while Sheryl Crow will team up with Maren Morris, Thomas Rhett will perform with Little Big Town and Trombone Shorty, Toby Keith and Cole Swindell will collaborate, and Brett Young will sing alongside Boyz II Men.
