Country music’s big night just got even bigger.
The Academy of Country Music just announced that Brad Paisley, Dierks Bentley, Hunter Hayes, Brantley Gilbert, Jana Kramer and Florida Georgia Line will perform as a part of this year’s ACM Fan Jam. Taking place at the Orleans Hotel in Las Vegas, the fans-only live concert takes place during and after the 48th ACM Awards, and portions of the show will be broadcast live as part of the ACM Awards program on April 7.
ACM New Artist of the Year will also be announced from the ACM Fan Jam stage during the live broadcast. Nominees Gilbert, Kramer and Florida Georgia Line made it through the first round of fan voting and will now compete for the coveted award. Fans can vote for their favorite New Artist beginning Monday, March 25 through Sunday, April 7.
Previously announced ACM Awards performers include Luke Bryan, Kelly Clarkson, Blake Shelton, George Strait, Miranda Lambert, and The Band Perry.
