The seventh-annual iHeart Country Festival virtually celebrated some of country’s biggest acts on Friday, 10/23.
Hosted by Bobby Bones, the event, presented by Capitol One, kicked off with Sam Hunt performing hits like “Hard to Forget,” "Young Once” and “Body Like a Backroad,” followed by Lady A’s “You Look Good,” “What If I Never Get Over You” and “Need You Now,” among others.
Recorded live on a single stage in Nashville, the event also featured performances by stars like Kane Brown (who dedicated his song “Homesick” to the U.S. military), Kelsea Ballerini, Dustin Lynch, Jon Pardi, Riley Green, Morgan Evans and Gabby Barrett.
Dierks Bentley closed out the show with “Burning Man,” “Woman, Amen,” “I Hold On” and “Drunk on a Plane.”
The event was livestreamed on LiveXLive.com and broadcast across iHeartMedia’s country stations.
