Would it really be the week of the ACM Awards in Texas if no played the world’s largest honky tonk?
The Academy of Country Music Awards are gearing up to take place this evening, May 16th, in Frisco, Texas, but leading up to the awards ceremony, many faces of country music have been out and about in Dallas/Fort Worth.
On Tuesday, May 14th, Jelly Roll graced the stage at Billy Bob’s Texas for a charity concert, which also posed as a great warm-up before he takes the ACM stage tonight. While a Jelly Roll concert on its own always leads to a good time, and even better time is had when Jelly Roll decides to bring all of his friends to the show with him.
Post Malone was spotted hanging out backstage before the show, and the two later appeared at Koe Wetzel’s Riot Room in Forth Worth. While Posty did not take the stage, Jelly Roll ensured there was no lack of other celebrity appearances, as Shaboozey, Noah Kahan, and Lainey Wilson all made guest appearances during the concert.
Social media video clips show that Shaboozey came out first to sing his viral song “A Bar Song (Tipsy),” then Noah Kahan came out performing a few of his hit songs from Stick Season, closing out with the 2023 CMA Entertainer of the Year, Miss Lainey Wilson.
Naturally, since both Wilson and Jelly have been riding a high of success together over the past year, they performed their hit duet “Save Me,” and the crowd went wild.
Check out some of the clips from the night.
