In case you are still wishing you had seen all the acts at ACM’s Party For A Cause, well we have some photos of Chris Lane for you! Lane performed Saturday on the party stage and the crowd loved him!
Since Lane was performing on Saturday, it only made sense to sing his song “Saturday Night.” Here is a clip of the performance!

Courtney Cole was a breath of fresh air during Day 2 of ACM’s Party For A Cause Festival. Most of the female performers performed on Day 1 so Day 2 was almost an all Male bill, except for Cole! We over at Variety Beat sure love our Female Country Artists!
The “Ladylike” singer performed songs off her EP which is available to stream free on Spotify! Cole was also included in a previous article I had written “10 Country Music Artists Who Can Change Radio in 2016.” I had the opportunity to say hello to her after her set and tell her about writing the article!
It’s so wonderful when the artists are able to take the time to thank everyone for coming and allow them to connect on a more personal level. It’s something that is so special about Party For A Cause, to allow these opportunities and the fact these artists come out to donate their time is what makes Country Music so great!

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?).

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.
Headlining night 1 of ACM’s Party For A Cause was none other than Carrie Underwood. It’s her we have to thank for this wonderful day of Women In Country! She requested the bill for Friday to be all Female Country Artists! It was definitely a day in heaven!
Underwood has one of the most amazing voices across all genres! It was wonderful to hear her perform her new single “Church Bells.”
Her previous single, “Heartbeat” recently hit #1 and happens to be my favorite off the Storyteller album!
Underwood also had a few surprises up her sleeve, as well as being surprised herself when the Academy of Country Music presented her with the Lifting Lives Gary Haber Award! She brought out Miranda Lambert to perform their song “Something Bad.” The crowd went wild with excitement!
Underwood also performed a song off her album Storyteller called “Dirty Laundry.” It’s a fun song about what happens when a man cheats on you! Of course being cheated on is definitely not fun, but it’s a warning to men, if you do it, well your dirty laundry is going to be aired!
Waiting all day/night for Underwood to perform was well worth it. She always blows it out of the water! Speaking of water, she performed her GRAMMY winning song “Something In The Water.” I had to record a clip as it’s such a powerful song that really showcases her vocal range!
Not only did Underood request to have an all female bill, but she then invited them back to sing with her! The atmosphere was crazy as Kelleigh Bannen, Lauren Alaina, Kellie Pickler and Jana Kramer all came back out to perform “Before He Cheats” with Underwood!

Be sure to catch Carrie Underwood on the Storyteller Tour! Can’t wait to see her again in a few weeks at Stagecoach! Coverage will be here after so check back early next month!
What a wild Friday night Kelsea Ballerini had last weekend! Ballerini was very excited to be performing at ACM’s Party For A Cause for the first time ever and then they surprised her by presenting her with the ACM Award for New Female Vocalist Of The Year! Ballerini knew she won but wasn’t expecting to be presented with the actual award in the middle of her set!

It was wonderful to be there to witness that! Ballerini also performed her new single “Peter Pan” off her album The First Time. It is the third single released from the album, with the previous two both reaching #1.

We can’t wait for this song to reach #1 as well! Check out our photo gallery from the performance!
