Hey by the way, did you catch Lindsay Ell performing at ACM’s Party For A Cause? If not, you should have! Ell performed on Sunday, which was the same day as the 51st Annual ACM Awards, but if Ell could pull a double duty then so could we! We made a special trip to the festival grounds just for her! 🙂 We got there in time to see Maren Morris before her and stuck around to see Granger Smith after (galleries coming soon).

  
Ell is a guitar goddess, no really- she even gives guitar lessons to fans when she’s on the road! #GuitarTeacherGoals. As you will soon see, I was busy snapping photos of Ell to share with everyone, but did manage to record her single “By The Way” (see what I did there earlier?).

WATCH LINDSAY ELL PERFORM “BY THE WAY”

Ell also did a little medley and I recorded in time to get a little clip of Taylor Swift‘s “Bad Blood.” AMAZING.

Ell is currently on the CMT Next Women of Country Tour with Jennifer Nettles, Brandy Clark, and Tara Thompson.

One Tree Hill alum, Jana Kramer was the third performer at ACM’s Party For A Cause festival that took place April 1, 2016 in Las Vegas. While running around trying to see everyone, we managed to get some photos and a video of her performing “Boomerang.”

Kelsea Ballerini Accepts ACM New Female Vocalist Of The Year Award – Watch

Video Leave a comment

Congratulations to Kelsea Ballerini for winning the ACM Award for New Female Artist Of The Year! The New Artist winners were announced earlier but it was during Ballerini’s set at ACM Party For A Cause that she received her award! She was thankful it wasn’t on the show because they would have gotten an “ugly cry.”

The tears were flowing as Ballerini struggled to be able to speak after the shock of it all. This is Ballerini’s first time being nominated and winning an ACM Award. She recalls attending last year, just to watch and winning has meant so much to her.

Carrie Underwood Accepts ACM Lifting Lives Gary Haber Award- Watch

Video Leave a comment

ACM Party For A Cause Headliner, Carrie Underwood surprised the crowd a few times Friday night, but she also received a surprise of her own! Underwood was presented with the ACM Lifting Lives Gary Haber Award and gave an emotional speech upon doing so.

It was announced prior that Underwood would be receiving it as a special award, but she didn’t expect to receive it during her set at ACM’s PFAC. She got emotional even after when she was singing “Jesus Take The Wheel.” She wiped tears from her eyes and couldn’t get the words to come out. Thankfully for Underwood, the crowd knew all the words and they sang along for her!
