Taylor Swift To Perform At The CMA Awards

Taylor Swift is returning to the CMA Awards this year as a performer. Swift is nominated for Single of the Year with “I Knew It, I Knew You,” marking her 26th career CMA nomination.

A two-time CMA Entertainer of the Year, Swift first attended the awards in 2006. In 2007, she was awarded the Horizon Award and in 2009 she earned her first Entertainer of the Year honor. To this day, she remains the youngest artist ever to win the award.

Thirteen years ago, Swift was honored with the prestigious Pinnacle Award, presented by Tim McGraw, Faith Hill, George Strait, Brad Paisley, Keith Urban and Rascal Flatts, artists she had opened for early in her career. She also performed “Red” with Vince Gill and Alison Krauss, her last performance on the CMA Awards stage.

The 60th Annual CMA Awards will air live from Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena on Wednesday, Nov. 18 (8:00-11:00 PM/ET) on ABC and Disney+ and is available next day on Hulu.

The 60th Annual CMA Awards is a production of the Country Music Association. Robert Deaton serves as Executive Producer, Alan Carter is Director, and Jon Macks is Head Writer.
