Lauren Alaina has been named the CMA Foundation’s newest Artist Ambassador. She will participate in events and initiatives that enhance the CMA Foundation’s mission.

Alaina sat down with ABC’s On the Red Carpet ahead of The 55th Annual CMA Awards to discuss her passion for music education and the importance behind ensuring access to equitable music education opportunities. The interview will air in various markets this coming weekend, Nov. 6-7, during the On the Red Carpet: CMA Awards Countdown preview show.

“We are excited to welcome Lauren Alaina to the CMA Foundation Artist Ambassador collective,” says Tiffany Kerns, CMA Foundation Executive Director. “Lauren’s passion for music and music education is so evident. She continues to use her voice in a way that magnifies the power of music, and we could not be more grateful to her for joining us to further drive our mission forward, making sure all students across the U.S. have access to participate in quality music programs.”

On Nov. 22, Alaina will host a live virtual “Fansgiving,” benefiting the CMA Foundation in celebration of her new book, Getting Good at Being You. Fans can chat with Alaina and cook alongside her as she reads from her book and prepares for the holiday season. Tickets for the event start at $10 and go on sale Nov. 5.

“I would not be Lauren Alaina without the role music education played in my life,” Alaina shaers. “I’m grateful for the music programs I was in throughout my middle school and high school years. I’m honored to join the CMA Foundation in their mission to make sure all kids have the same opportunity to make music a part of their lives.”

Alaina joins the CMA Foundation’s Artist Ambassador collective alongside Jimmie Allen, Charlie Worsham, Russell Dickerson, Lindsay Ell, Maddie & Tae, Ashley McBryde and Caitlyn Smith.
