The 2014 CMA Music Festival kicks off a week from today in Nashville, TN and runs from June 5-8.  The event, which draws flocks of country fans from all around the world, will be filmed for a TV special which will air on ABC at 9pm ET on August 5th.  The program will be hosted by Little Big Town, and will feature performances from several of the stars scheduled to perform, as well as some likely surprises!

“It is great to have Little Big Town back to host Country’s Night to Rock,” says executive producer Robert Deaton. “They have impeccable timing, a terrific sense of humor, the respect of the artistic community, and the admiration of the fans. They are the perfect ensemble cast to host this special.”
