Taylor Swift, Pistol Annies, Luke Bryan Among CMT Awards Performers

If you’re going to throw a party in Nashville — especially one where little gold statuettes will be handed out — you kind of have to invite Taylor Swift. So it’s only right that this year’s CMT Music Awards get that formality out of the way.

The first batch of performers have been announced for this year’s show, which takes place on Wednesday, June 5, at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville. In addition to Swift, the stage will belong to Pistol Annies (whose excellent new album Annie Up is out now), Luke Bryan, Hunter Hayes, and Little Big Town, with more to come.

This year’s show is co-hosted by “Take a Little Ride” hitmaker Jason Aldean and sloth enthusiast Kristen Bell.
