Cumulus Media announces that its Nashville Country radio stations 103.3 Country/WKDF-FM and 95.5 NASH Icon/WSM-FM have joined forces again and partnered with AEG Presents to bring a star-studded lineup of Country hitmakers for the annual “Country Kick-Off” live concert to CMA Fest Week in Nashville.
The live concert event will be held on Tuesday, June 6, 2023, at Skydeck on Broadway, downtown Nashville’s newest rooftop stage with stunning skyline views. Country superstars Brett Young, Scotty McCreery, Russell Dickerson, and Morgan Evans will perform, with acoustic sets by Tenille Arts, Jordan Harvey and HunterGirl.
For the first time ever, the live concert event will be recorded and broadcast across Cumulus Media’s 58 Country radio stations across the U.S. as an exclusive Fourth of July concert special entitled, “Country Music Celebrates Our Country.” The special is scheduled to run on every Cumulus Media’s Country station from coast to coast between Saturday, July 1st, and Tuesday, July 4th.
Charlie Cook, Vice President/Country, Cumulus Media, and Operations Manager, WKDF-FM and WSM-FM, said: “We are thrilled to assemble this great lineup of some of Country’s most exciting artists to kick off Nashville's biggest week of music. Thank you to our label and management partners for making this our biggest Country Kick-Off yet!”
Krista Hayes, Director of Promotions and Marketing, WKDF-FM, WSM-FM and WQQK-FM, said: “This is sure to be the party of ALL PARTIES! If locals haven’t secured their tickets already – they should, because YES, this show is for YOU, NASHVILLE! A very special thank you to our friends at Broken Bow Records, Big Machine Records, Triple Tigers, Warner, and Reviver. Without your support, we would not be able to host this very special show in the heart of Music City for real Country music lovers to enjoy. We have a very specific goal here at 103.3 Country and 95.5 NASH ICON: live and local. Touching our listeners with the healing power of music and conversation is what matters to us the most.”
For over ten years, “Country Kick-Off” has been a premiere destination for both local Nashvillians and out-of-towners to enjoy live music. Past Country Kick-Off headliners include Sam Hunt, Kelsea Ballerini, Brothers Osbourne, Mitchell Tenpenny, Chris Janson, Thompson Square, Easton Corbin and many more.
A portion of ticket sales will benefit Musicians on Call and W.O. Smith Music School. Doors to Skydeck on Broadway open at 6:30 p.m. CT on June 6th. For more information or to buy tickets now, visit www.CountryKickoffConcert.com.
