CMT has set an all-star tribute to country legend Toby Keith featuring a stacked lineup of one-of-a-kind performances from BROOKS & DUNN, Lainey Wilson and Sammy Hagar, all backed by Toby's longtime band, with special appearances by Lukas Nelson and Roger Clemens, on the 2024 "CMT Music Awards", hosted by Kelsea Ballerini, live from Austin, Texas' Moody Center on Sunday, April 7 (8:00-11:00 p.m. ET/delayed PT) on the CBS television network and available to stream live and on demand on Paramount+.
