ACM’s New Female Aritst Of The Year, Kelsea Ballerini was in Los Angeles this week doing interviews and getting ready for her performance on the Radio Disney Awards and The American Country Countdown Awards! She is one busy lady and despite already having an interview with Access Hollywood Thursday morning, she also took time for a special ACM Session Taping!

These tapings allow fans to attend the private event where an artist is interviewed and then performs a few songs. They are later available online at CBS.com.

It was an interactive session, where Ballerini interacted with the fans and answered their questions off camera! She is excited about performing her single “Peter Pan” on the Radio Disney Music Awards and “Dibs” on the ACCAs.

Ballerini has two #1 songs off her current album and “Peter Pan” is the third single to be released and it is currently in the top 40 at Country Radio.

When talking about her single “Peter Pan” she explained that she has been the Peter Pan in a relationship and she has also been “Peter Panned.” Thus giving birth to a great new verb!

There were a ton of fun moments and Ballerini even had to sing two of her songs again because one of her band members was wearing a hat with a logo. The fans didn’t seem to mind one bit! While goofing around between songs, Ballerini sang a song “Highschool” that she is thinking about putting on her next album.

Ballerini also revealed that she is currently planning her next album. She just had her first meeting for it, she played 20 songs and they will be choosing five to begin with. She said that her first album introduced her as an artist from the age of 12-21. When she was putting it together she wasn’t thinking about a live show and that is why there are a lot of mid-tempo songs. Her next album will have more up-tempo songs to make for an even greater live show.

She also took the time to say hi to those in attendance! It was so lovely chatting with her!


We can’t wait for what she has in store. Check out the photos of her performances below!

Kelsea Ballerini Performs “Highschool” A Song Off Her Next Album – Watch

It’s been two years since Country Sweetheart, Kelsea Ballerini has penned a song by herself. Since moving to Nashville, Ballerini has been teaming up with amazing songwriters and writing alone can sometimes become a lost art.

While in Vegas for ACM Week, Ballerini shared with the audience about writing a song called “Highschool” that will be on her next album. With two #1 songs under her belt, it’s no doubt her next album will be super successful. One of which being “Love Me Like You Mean It” (boys take note).

Ballerini recently released a third single from her album The First Time called “Peter Pan.” Check out our gallery of Ballerini performing at ACM Party For A Cause!
