Wednesday night the Country Music Association (CMA) held their annual awards show. The evening included performances from Jelly Roll, Chris Stapleton, Ashley McBryde, Luke Combs, and a fun tribute to Jimmy Buffett. Alan Jackson and Zac Brown teamed up for a rendition of “Margaritaville,” while Kenny Chesney and Mac McAnally sang “How a Pirate Looks at 40.”

Cody Johnson, who will be performing in Saskatoon on August 3rd, sang his latest single “The Painter,” and Kelsea Ballerini received a standing ovation for her stripped down, acoustic performance of “Leave me Again.”
