Where: Ole Red Nashville
CMA Fest weekend brings the best of the best of country music to Nashville, and Ole Red’s got the hottest up-and-comers headed to our Main Stage. Trust us—our expert-picked lineup will Blow. You. Away.
Hosted by WSM Radio’s Kelly Sutton, catch these new artists you gotta know as they hit the Main Stage:
LANIE GARDNER
Lanie Gardner went viral for her dreamy cover of Fleetwood Mac's “Dreams,” and hasn’t slowed down since. With a debut album of ten self-written tracks, she’s the real deal—authentic, cool, and completely her own. Check out “A Songwriter’s Diary”—you’ll be glad you did.
BRYCE LEATHERWOOD
One of Team Blake’s very own, Bryce Leatherwood stole hearts (and the win!) on The Voice with his classic country swagger and golden vocals. Straight out of Georgia, he’s got old-school charm with new-school fire. Stream his debut album and come see him live on June 4.
WILLIAM BECKMANN
Bilingual singer-songwriter William Beckmann brings velvet vocals and a tequila-smooth sound. Hailing from Del Rio, Texas, his mix of country, Americana, and Latin roots hits with a whole lotta heart. He’s the kind of artist who makes every song feel like a story you’ve lived.
AUSTIN SNELL
Austin Snell is shaking up country music with his gritty blend of rock edge and southern grit. He’s on the forefront of the "grunge country" wave, with a hard-hitting sound and lyrics. If you like your country with bite, Austin’s your guy.
KAT LUNA
A Florida girl with Cuban roots, Kat Luna is carving her own lane in country music with a powerhouse voice and a heart full of fire. Her sound brings the perfect blend of country soul and Latin flair. Her storytelling hits deep—she’ll break your heart and heal it in the same song.
HOST: KELLY SUTTON
Kelly Sutton has been the go-to entertainment journalist in Nashville for two decades. Her conversations with some of Music City’s biggest stars feel more like a friend “hang” than an interview. She’s sat down with the biggest and brightest—Dolly Parton, Taylor Swift, Keith Urban, Garth Brooks, and more. Now she’s bringing that same star power to Ole Red, introducing the next generation of artists—and trust us, you won’t forget a moment.
