It will probably be similar to her acoustic medley performance earlier this month at the Los Angeles Zoo benefit event for Australia wildfire efforts.

ACM's 'Our Country': How a star-studded music special was made during the pandemic

By Dave Paulson | Nashville Tennessean | April 2, 2020

While he's hunkered down at home in Charleston, South Carolina, in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic, Darius Rucker has passed the time in old, familiar ways. He's making music in his home studio and hanging out with his kids, "laughing, talking and eating a lot."

But other experiences have been new. Rucker just taped a performance with his friend Brad Paisley for a new prime-time TV special airing Sunday. They were in different states.

"We did it over FaceTime," Rucker explains. 

"We called each other up, taped it, and Brad edited it. You know, it definitely wasn't easy, but we had a lot of fun," he said with a laugh.

Rucker and Paisley are two of more than 20 country stars who will be seen performing from their homes during "ACM Presents: Our Country," a two-hour special airing at 8 p.m. ET Sunday on CBS.

The special has come together in just three weeks, after it was announced that the Academy of Country Music Awards — originally scheduled for Sunday — would be postponed until September due to coronavirus concerns.

Since then, artists including Carrie Underwood, Keith Urban, Luke Bryan, Eric Church, Luke Combs, Miranda Lambert, Little Big Town, Tim McGraw, Shania Twain, and Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani have filmed themselves performing while in self-isolation.

The result is a "beautiful, emotional, intimate special," says executive producer R.A. (Rac) Clark.

"The approach when we reached out to all of these artists was, 'This is a collective experience across the world. We are all experiencing this. What are you doing as a fellow human being?' A lot of them said, 'I'm sitting down and making music, and I want to share that with everyone.' "

When Clark says "a lot of them," he means it. After they announced plans for the new special, even more artists offered to be a part of the show.

"We made a few jokes along the way that the show could definitely be three hours instead of two," says Amy Thurlow, Executive Producer and President of Dick Clark Productions.

So, the show's creative forces had an unexpected challenge.

"How do you fit 10 pounds of potato salad into a 1-pound container?" says Jack Sussman, CBS' executive vice president of specials, music and live events.

They decided to ask the artists to do slightly shorter versions of their songs and to spend a little time talking directly to their fans. In the end, they were able to include more than 20 acts.

On a technical level, it'd be hard for "Our Country" to be less sophisticated. There are no stage lights, no camera crews, no professional sound engineers. Artists were propping up their phones to record themselves or enlisted a family member to be their cinematographer. But Sussman says these limitations shed light on the musical talent on display.

"This is the beauty — and I mean this in a positive way — of an under-produced show. It shows you in no uncertain terms how amazingly talented these performers are, in a stripped-down, acoustic way. This music is not produced in a basement in Sweden. These guys get up on a stage, play real instruments and sing."

In fact, "Our Country" performers were encouraged to give viewers a look behind the curtain. While the members of Lady Antebellum sing "What I'm Leaving For" from separate homes, you'll see Charles Kelley's son sitting on his lap.

Shelton and Stefani belt out "Nobody But You" in front of a backyard bonfire. Underwood's "Drinking Alone" is aptly performed by the singer on a living room couch, with a glass of red wine at her side. 

It's hard not to watch these performances — including Kane Brown and John Legend's FaceTime duet of their new single, "Last Time I Say Sorry" — and not imagine they were originally meant to happen on the ACM Awards stage. The show had announced only a handful of performers before the postponement.

On the ceremony side, the 2020 ACM Awards have been put "on pause," says ACM CEO Damon Whiteside. The voting results have been tabulated by Deloitte and will be kept "safely under lock and key until Sept. 16. ... Literally nobody has any visibility to them."

The show, on the other hand, is bound for big changes. 

"It's going to morph, obviously," Whiteside says. "Not knowing where the country's gonna be at that point, and what the mood of the country is. Artists may be on different hits at that point. We know that what we had planned prior is certainly going to morph in some way. But once we get through this weekend, we're going to jump headfirst into the awards show and really start planning."

How to watch

"ACM Presents: Our Country" airs at 8 p.m. ET on Sunday on CBS.

Gayle King will host, and the show features performances from Kelsea Ballerini, Dierks Bentley, Kane Brown & John Legend, Luke Bryan, Brandi Carlile, Eric Church, Luke Combs, Sheryl Crow, Florida Georgia Line, Lady Antebellum, Miranda Lambert, Little Big Town, Tim McGraw, Old Dominion, Brad Paisley and Darius Rucker, Thomas Rhett, Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani, Shania Twain, Carrie Underwood and Keith Urban.

ACM Lifting Lives COVID-19 Response Fund

ACM Lifting Lives has created a COVID-19 Response Fund, "to assist individuals working in the country music industry who are suffering a financial crisis as a result of the pandemic," per a release. Radio/TV personality Bobby Bones will introduce the fund during the "Our Country" telecast.

The fund will begin with an initial endowment of $250,000, and a matching fund against ACM partners, sponsors and third-party donors of up to $250,000. That group includes The Bobby Bones Show, FirstNet, Built with AT&T, and Amazon Music.

Twain Brings Hits, Furry Friends to ACM's 'Our Country'

Taste of Country | April 5, 2020

Shania Twain performed from her stable -- with a furry "audience" -- for the ACM Presents: Our Country TV special. The country star's horse and dog sat nearby as she performed two of her '90s country hits.

Twain's Our Country performance featured "Honey, I'm Home" and "Man! I Feel Like a Woman," both big hits for Twain from her mega-successful 1997 album Come on Over. That record is the best-selling country album of all time and the best-selling studio album by a female artist of any genre of all time.

"These are crazy times, but we're gonna do what we always do and pull together to get through it," Twain told those watching from home before her performance. "Because, let's face it, we're all in this together."

The ACM Presents: Our Country TV special aired Sunday night (April 5) in place of the 2020 ACM Awards. The annual event, which usually takes place in early April in Las Vegas, Nev., was postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Officially, the 2020 ACM Awards have been rescheduled for Sept. 16 at 8PM ET (to air on CBS), but no city or venue has been named. Voting for the awards has ended, but the results will remain confidential until the new date. Keith Urban will remain the host of the 2020 ACMs. He was first revealed as this year's host in late February, just as the nominees were announced. Luke Bryan, Eric Church, Luke Combs, Thomas Rhett and Carrie Underwood are up for Entertainer of the Year this year.

Shania Twain Duets With a Horse for Stable-Side Performance at ACM Presents: Our Country

By Stephen Daw | Billboard | April 5, 2020

For many of the artists who appeared on Sunday night's ACM Presents: Our Country concert, couches, living rooms and bedrooms served as the backdrops for their at-home performances. But then Shania Twain appeared.

Decked out in a red sweater and some ripped blue jeans, Twain sat outside of her stable, with her dog and a large blonde horse watching her closely. The star reassured her fans that, eventually, everything was going to be OK.

"These are crazy times, but we're gonna do what we always do and pull together to get through it," Twain told those watching from home before her performance. "Because, let's face it, we're all in this together."

The country star then launched into an acoustic verse of the appropriately titled "Honey, I'm Home," giving fans the relatable lyrics they were craving about just having a hard day, singing, "Honey, I'm back, my head's killing me/ I need to relax and watch TV/ Get off the phone, give the dog a bone/ Hey, hey, honey, I'm home."

For good measure, Twain also delighted her fans with a rendition of "Man! I Feel Like a Woman," as if letting fans know that, don't worry, soon we'll all be "going out tonight." Even the superstar's horse seemed to be into her songs, rubbing up against her face and even licking her strings at one point.

Stars like Tim McGraw, Kelsea Ballerini, Kane Brown & John Legend, Florida Georgia Line and many more country stars will be performing hits from their homes during Sunday night's special, airing on CBS.

Tommy, her voice sounds auto tuned in the performance, and the sudden change In sound quality from her talking to when she started singing sounded odd. What do you think?

I don't know. Maybe she pre-recorded it on her Pro Tools that she mentions a lot.

Um no. that was a totally live acoustic performance. You can hear her breathe and pronounce words clearly with her mouth and there is not one bit of indication that it is auto tuned at all. She is playing guitar and singing acoustically and it is all real. Every single artist recorded themself singing. I could make the same claim about every damn artist on the show.

I don't know. Maybe she pre-recorded it on her Pro Tools that she mentions a lot. 


Her lips and sounds match well (even her patting the quitar at the end) but there's really a difference between how she sounded while speaking and singing. And no sounds from the horse being so close to her. Maybe the sound of her speaking was taken from the camera that was filmimg her while her singing was taken from a mic somewhere closer to her. That could be the case. If even this is a pre-recorded track, why would she agree to do it at all? It'd be so fake (but I'm not contending here anything - I just don't know).

ACM Updates: COVID-19 Response Fund; ‘Our Country’ Rebroadcast

By LB Rogers | Music Row | April 8, 2020

ACM Lifting Lives and the Academy of Country Music announced today (April 8) the ACM Lifting Lives COVID-19 Response Fund allocated $1 million in less than a week following the ACM Presents: Our Country special that aired Sunday, April 5 on CBS. The special was viewed by early 8 million music fans around the country, and featured at-home acoustic performances from country artists, along with clips from past ACM Awards moments and an introduction of the ACM Lifting Lives COVID-19 Response Fund.

Since the announcement, $1 million was raised thanks to ACM Lifting Lives sponsors FirstNet, Built with AT&T and Amazon Music, and donors, including The Bobby Bones Show, City National Bank, and other individuals. The ACM Lifting Lives COVID-19 Response Fund—which was created to assist individuals working in the country music industry who are suffering a financial crisis as a result of the pandemic—began with an initial endowment of $250,000, matched $250,000 in outside support, and is now contributing another $250,000 due to the need of applicants. To date, more than $500,000 has been distributed to country music industry professionals who demonstrate immediate financial needs due to COVID-19 and meet the outlined criteria.

“In less than 48 hours, ACM Lifting Lives was able to send financial support to hundreds of applicants with the ACM Lifting Lives COVID-19 Response Fund at an expedited pace,” said Lyndsay Cruz, Executive Director of ACM Lifting Lives. “A huge thank you to our generous private corporate donors, partners, and many individual industry leaders for their contributions. Because of them, ACM Lifting Lives matched donations to aid those in the county music community during these extraordinary times. We are hopeful to continue supporting future applicants with this fund and thank you to all for the support. 

It was also announced that ACM Presents: Our Country will rebroadcast Saturday, April 11 at 8:00 p.m. ET on the CBS Television Network and on CBS All Access. The special features performances from Kelsea Ballerini, Dierks Bentley, Kane Brown & John Legend, Luke Bryan, Brandi Carlile, Eric Church, Luke Combs, Sheryl Crow, Florida Georgia Line, Lady Antebellum, Miranda Lambert, Little Big Town, Tim McGraw, Old Dominion, Brad Paisley & Darius Rucker, Thomas Rhett, Blake Shelton & Gwen Stefani, Shania Twain, Carrie Underwood and Keith Urban. Additionally, the special will honor 10-time ACM Award winner Kenny Rogers with performances by Luke Bryan, Brad Paisley and Darius Rucker.

“The Academy thanks the artists that participated in the special as they brought comfort and music to nearly 8 million people in this time of uncertainty,” said Damon Whiteside, CEO of the Academy of Country Music. “The show also spread the message about the good work of ACM Lifting Lives through the generosity of our artists and partners, and directed viewers to our ACMOurCountry.com website where they can apply or discover how to support this important cause.”
