The Best CMA Award Performances 2024

The 2024 CMA Awards were last night on ABC, and as always, there were a bunch of live performances. Some great, some meh, and a couple where I was like, “why are they here”? I won’t name names on the not-so-great performances, but I want to give props to who I thought really represented Country Music well.

Ashley McBryde honoring the late Kris Kristofferson with a gorgeous rendition of “Help Me Make it Through the Night”:


Perfection. Kris would be proud.

 

Kacey Musgraves delivered a gorgeous version of “The Architect”, which I feel is one of the best songs of the year. It didn’t pick up any CMA Awards, but it’s up for a bunch of Grammys, so I’m sure she’ll rack up there:


So pure and gorgeous. Country music is lucky to have Kacey, and really, the industry needs to show a bit more appreciation.

 

Chris and Morgane Stapleton “What Am I Gonna Do?”:

These two… POWER COUPLE. I want Morgane to release her own solo album and just blow everyone ou of the water.

You know she would.

 

As usual at The CMAs, there were a lot of great performances, but those were the ones where I was like, “damn.”

 

What was your favorite performance of the night?

 

Post Malone Goes Country With Morgan Wallen and Hardy at the 2023 CMA Awards

In case you missed it…

Last night Morgan Wallen, HARDY, and Post Malone teamed up for a medley honoring the late, great Joe Diffie at the CMA Awards.

And you know what?

It was pretty damn cool.

Posty has some Country Chops!

I grew up listening to Joe Diffie, and 90’s Country music in general, and I was all for it.

I know there are some people who have no lives complaining on social media that “That’s NOT COUNTRY”.

Oh, get over yourself, and enjoy the damn music. If that’s what gets your goat, then consider yourself blessed.

Also, HARDY announced his “Hixtape Vol. 3” which whill feature Morgan Wallen and Post Malone, and it features the Joe Diffie covers.

Cody Johnson Performing “The Painter” at the 2023 CMA Awards

I’m watching the 57th Annual CMA Awards on ABC just now, and I was already looking forward to Cody Johnson taking the stage. Well, this performance solidified why I am such a fan.

I’m ugly crying over here.


Hot damn. You can tell he loves his wife.

Guys, take note on how to make your woman feel special.

I mean, maybe you can’t do it on this scale but still….

 

That being said, I have a massive cold right now, and my husband brought home Fireball Whiskey and Apple Cider to help make it better without me asking for it. He just knew.

Maybe it’s not a painting of me while he’s performing at the CMAs, but still… it’s something.

Here’s to love, and Mucinex and Fireball.

 

That really should be a Country song in itself.
