CMA Awards performers include Post Malone, Shaboozey and Teddy Swims

The 2024 CMA Awards telecast will be filled with artists who have had crossover success on several charts this year, including Post Malone, Shaboozey and Teddy Swims, as well as big names in the genre like Lainey Wilson, Chris Stapleton and Luke Bryan , all announced Thursday as part of the first round of talent being unveiled for the Nov. 20 show.

Wilson and Bryan were shoo-ins to perform at this year’s CMAs, as they were already announced as co-hosts, along with Peyton Manning. Other big country names to emerge from the first round of performers included Dierks Bentley, Thomas Rhett and Ashley McBryde.

The CMAs have already announced what these artists will be doing when they take the Bridgestone Arena stage in just under two weeks, including some star-powered duets or medleys. Among these collaborations, Post Malone and Stapleton will perform “California Sober” together.

Rhett and Swims will perform what is described as a mashup of ‘Something ‘Bout a Woman’ and ‘Lose Control’, their recent respective hits. And Bentley will be joined by some top performers – Molly Tuttle, Sierra Hull and Bronwyn Keith-Hynes – to bring Tom Petty’s “American Girl” to life in rural life.

Among planned solo performances, Shaboozey will perform a medley of his still Hot-100-topping “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” and new single “Highway.” Wilson will perform her current single “4x4xU” and her co-host Bryan will perform “Love You, Miss You, Mean It.” Malone and Stapleton will both get solo turns in the spotlight, as well as their duet, with Malone singing “Yours” from his recent all-country album and Stapleton performing “What Am I Gonna Do.”

The CMA Awards telecast airs at 8 PM ET/PT on ABC November 20, and will be available on Hulu the next day.
