Scotty McCreery
9:30 – 11:00 PM
3rd Street Stage

ACM and CMT Award-winning singer/songwriter Scotty McCreery has earned five consecutive No.1 hits in the last few years: “Damn Strait,” “You Time,” “In Between,” “This is It,” and “Five More Minutes.” His recent album, Same Truck, also features his current single “It Matters to Her,” which is quickly moving up the country airplay charts. The North Carolina native, who just became a new father, has achieved one Double Platinum, four Platinum, and four Gold singles as well as one Platinum and two Gold albums, all certified by the RIAA.

Nate Smith
8:15 – 9:00 PM
3rd Street Stage

According to an age-old cliché, getting knocked down ain’t what matters – it’s how you get up, and Sony Music Nashville’s Nate Smith knows firsthand. With a personal journey scarred by disaster, but defined by revival, he could have stayed down multiple times through life, and instead grew into something else entirely: A beacon of country-music hope.

Lainey Wilson
6:45 – 8:00 PM
1st Street Stage

ACM New Female of the Year 2022 winner, Lainey Wilson has earned the enthusiasm of the industry, having been named to nearly every “Artist to Watch” list, winning MusicRow Magazine’s Discovery Artist of the Year award and being crowned Billboard’s “Top New Country Artist of 2021,” the Louisiana native is one of Nashville’s hottest and most buzzed-about new artists. Landing her first No. 1 with her PLATINUM Certified ACM Song of the Year “Things A Man Oughta Know,” nearly 10 years to the day after leaving her small farming community in a camper trailer to chase her dreams, she has won over legions of fans with her signature Bell Bottom Country sound and aesthetic, which blends traditional Country with a modern yet retro flare.

Neal McCoy
5:15 – 6:30 PM
Main Street Stage

Neal McCoy is an award-winning American country music singer; winning the Country Music Entertainer of the Year award two times and having 5 number-one singles so far. Some of his most popular songs include: “No Doubt About It”, “Wink”, and “Billy’s Got His Beer Goggles On”.
