Kane Brown co-hosts CMT Music Awards

It’s a world-premiere performance that’s been in the making. The couple performed the song on his Drunk or Dreaming Tour.

However, the CMT Awards will mark the television debut of this song. When he was asked to return to this year’s CMT Awards, Kane Brown gave an “immediate yes!” It was a no-brainer for him. He spoke to ET correspondent Cassie DiLaura about fulfilling his role as co-host.

“My first CMT was my first award,” Kane Brown told ET Online. “[It’s the] only award show I’ve hosted and it’s just cool, getting to keep doing it and getting to keep getting more comfortable.”
