Day 2 — June 9, 2017

10:30 am: Grab some coffee from Bongo Java and head over to the Chevrolet Park Stage to catch Ryan Griffin perform during CMA Fest! Ryan Griffin released his new EP, Sake of the Summer, in March! Our favorite songs off of it are “Woulda Left Me Too,” and “Back Seats & Burnt CDs!”

11:10 am: No need to leave the Chevrolet Park Stage because the talented Lindsay Ell is up next! Linsday released her new EP, Worth the Wait, in late March, and it is so good! We cannot get enough of her song, “Waiting on You,” we hope we get to see her perform it live at CMA Fest!

11:50 am: Are you ready to see the breathtaking Brooke Eden at the Chevrolet Park Stage?! Brooke Eden always has inspirational songs and puts on a great show! We cannot wait to see her at CMA Fest this year.

12:30 pm: One of our favorite acts of the day, Mo Pitney, will be performing at the Chevrolet Park Stage! We have seen Mo Pitney perform at The Grand Ole Opry before, and he was unbelievable! One of our favorite songs he performs is “Boy & A Girl Thing,” if you don’t know it, we highly recommend checking that song out so you can sing it back to him when he performs!

12:45 pm: The woman with the most bubbly personality in all of country music, Olivia Lane, will be performing at the Gildan Broadway Stage at Hard Rock Café! We absolutely love Olivia Lane’s music, but her attitude calls for a great performance. We always love hearing her relatable songs such as “Make My Own Sunshine,” and “Quarter Life Crisis!”

1:10 pm: One of our favorite brother bands, The Swon Brothers, will put on a show at the Chevrolet Park Stage! We recently interviewed The Swon Brothers and saw them perform at Acme very recently, they blew us away! Our favorite songs off of their new EP, Pretty Cool Scars, are “Dwight Trashed,” “Don’t Call Me,” and “Gold!”

1:45 pm: How can one possibly skip seeing one of the most charming men in the country industry, Chris Lane, perform at the Chevrolet Riverfront Stage?! Between is fantastic hair and his catchy music, we cannot get enough of him. We always have his song, “Fix,” playing in our car!

2:30 pm: Don’t leave the Chevrolet Riverfront Stage so fast because Josh Turner is up next! Josh Turner has one of the deepest and sexiest voices in all of country music. He released his new album, Deep South, in March! Grab a cold beer and sit down to enjoy some authentic country music.

3:10 pm: Head back over to the Chevrolet Park Stage to catch Drew Baldridge perform his hit song, “Rebound!” We had the pleasure of interviewing Drew Baldridge back in February, and he promised us to put on a great show for everyone! Drew Baldridge has been on the SiriusXM Highway Finds tour lately and this would be a great time to catch one of his performances!

3:50 pm: Are you ready to see another SiriusXM Highway Finds Tour member, Steve Moakler?! You don’t even have to leave the Chevrolet Park Stage, which is very convenient! Recently we have been having his song, “Wheels,” on repeat, it is so beautiful!

4:30 pm: One of our favorite bands, The Railers, will be performing at the Chevrolet Park Stage! In January they released one of our favorite singles, “11:59 (Central Standard Time)!” They are so upbeat and keep their audience involved and on their feet!

8:00 pm: Are you ready for Nissan Stadium night two!? This is a legendary night, and one you would be very upset to miss! Night two has performances by Trace Adkins, Rascal Flatts, Sam Hunt, Kelsea Ballerini, Eric Church, and of course, Blake Shelton! It is guaranteed we will be dancing the whole night with this incredible lineup!

Did Nissan Stadium get you pumped up and you think the night is still young? Go to Acme and Tootsies bars downtown and you are guaranteed to have a fun time!
