The performance roster continues to grow for the 47th annual Academy of Country Music Awards. Blake Shelton, Lady Antebellum, Rascal Flatts and the Band Perry join an already star-studded list of country acts set to perform at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. These artists join previously announced performers Jason Aldean, Luke Bryan, Kenny Chesney, Eric Church, Toby Keith, Miranda Lambert and Tim McGraw. The ceremony, which honours country music’s top talent as well as the industry’s hottest emerging artists, will be co-hosted by Shelton and Reba McEntire. Chesney leads the nominees with nine nods, and Aldean is next with six. Chesney is twice nominated for Album of the Year for ‘Hemingway’s Whiskey’, as both artist and producer, as well as earning double nominations for Single Record of the Year and Vocal Event of the Year as both artist and producer for ‘You And Tequila’.
