Although thing are certainly different this year like everything else. -Dont forget we are entering you to meet Keith Urban virtually and attend his album release party 3 times a day! Deets here

This is The 55th ACM Awards and will be broadcast Tomorrow  (Wednesday, September 16)  It will be available to stream on demand on CBS All Access. For the first time in the awards show's history, the ACMs will be broadcast live from Nashville, with socially distanced performances from the Grand Ole Opry House, the historic Ryman Auditorium and The Bluebird Cafe.

I am really looking forward to some incredible performances. Here's what we know. Keith Urban will debut and perform the duet with Pink called "One Too Many" off of his new Speed of Now Part 1 album. Taylor Swift will head back to the ACM stage for the first time in 7 years to perform "Betty" off of her latest Folklore album. Blake and Gwen will perform "Happy Anywhere."
