The Returners

Carrie Underwood: Even though Carrie recently said she wants to take a break and spend some time with hockey player husband Mike Fisher and her son, Isaiah, the “Church Bells” singer just wrapped up the most successful tour of her career. Surely she can’t stay completely away from the stage!

Miranda Lambert: She has an impressive six ACM nominations this year, and released her first album since 2014. Everyone loves to see the firecracker Texan on the CMA Fest stage, so there would be no surprise if we see her up there again this year.

Keith Urban: He is the leading ACM nominee with a whopping seven nominations including Album of the Year for Ripcord. He recently performed at the GRAMMY’s with fellow country star Carrie Underwood – maybe we’ll see them on stage together again performing their hit single, “The Fighter”?

Dierks Bentley: He introduced Elle King at last year’s CMA Fest where they performed their hit single, “Different For Girls”. If he does return to the stage, he’s bound to perform the top 20 hit “Black”.
