ACC Awards Show Airs Sunday

Florida Georgia Line will open the 2016 American Country Countdown Awards on Sunday with its new love song “H.O.L.Y,” which was released Friday. The song is the debut single from the duo’s upcoming album, “Dig Your Roots,” which will be in stores over the summer.

Duo members Brian Kelley and Tyler Hubbard said the album is “anointed” and shows their growth and maturity.

“It’s a special, special album,” Hubbard told The Tennessean. “It definitely feels very inspired. It’s who we are right now, and I think that’s important for us to continue to be transparent with our music and let our fans into our lives one album at a time.”

The ACCA Awards also will feature performances from Kelsea Ballerini, Luke Bryan, Cam, Dan + Shay, Sam Hunt, Chris Janson, Martina McBride, Thomas Rhett, Cole Swindell, Carrie Underwood, and Toby Keith, who will pay tribute to Merle Haggard with Haggard’s longtime band, the Strangers.

The awards show is based on the country radio countdown program “American Country Countdown with Kix Brooks.” Finalists and winners were determined from album sales and radio airplay.

The 2016 American Country Countdown Awards will air live from the Forum in Inglewood, Calif., at 7 p.m. on Fox.
