"Stepping onto the stage in front of 50,000 people to host CMA Fest at Nissan Stadium in my hometown in Nashville was indescribable,” Jelly Roll mused. “The magnitude of the moment really hit me, to be across the street from the juvenile detention center I was in and to now be onstage hosting.”

“When my buddy Jelly Roll and I walked out into this massive crowd and felt the electric energy for the first time, it felt important,” added McBryde. “We were nervous! But it also felt good because at the root of it all, it’s just me and my pal cutting up; only we’re doing it on national television for CMA Fest.”

Meanwhile, four-night stadium passes for the next edition of CMA Fest, 6/5-8/2025, go on sale 6/25.
