Ella Langley, Zach Top To Perform At 60th ACM Awards
The Academy of Country Music has revealed Ella Langley and Zach Top will perform at next week’s 60th ACM Awards following their wins for ACM New Female Artist of the Year and ACM New Male Artist of the Year, respectively.
Hosted by 16-time ACM Award-winning entertainment icon Reba McEntire, the 60th ACM Awards will stream live exclusively for a global audience on Prime Video and the Amazon Music channel on Twitch on May 8 beginning at 8 p.m. ET / 7 p.m. CT / 5 p.m. PT from the Ford Center at The Star in Frisco, Texas, the world headquarters of the Dallas Cowboys.
The Academy has a history of supporting new artists, offering the new artist winners the opportunity to perform on the ACM Awards following their first ACM Award win. Langley, the top nominee at the upcoming ACM Awards, was surprised with her ACM New Female Artist of the Year Award last Friday while on stage at Rock The Country in Knoxville.
Top, who is also nominated for ACM Album of the Year for his album Cold Beer & Country Music, was surprised with his ACM Male Artist of the Year Award last Thursday prior to taking the stage for a sold-out show in Wilmington, North Carolina.
“I couldn’t be more honored, and I can’t say a big enough thank you to my fans for loving music and loving what we do on the road and listening to the songs every day,” Top said after being handed his ACM New Male Artist of the Year Award. “It means the world to me, I’ve always wanted to just play and sing for a living, and I get to do that now and it’s cool to be able to get a little trophy every now and then to let us know that we’re doing good doing it. So thank you so much, this is beautiful.”
“Every day of my life, I’ve just prayed about this and thought about it, and literally everything I’ve ever done was to be able to do this. I’m so grateful for the team I have around me,” Langley said to fans in a video after getting her ACM Award. “I’m just really grateful to have fans that are listening to the music and see that it is truth and I’m just a real life human being going through life like the rest of everyone else, and to see the things that I go through is something that everyone else goes through.”
Langley’s win arrives after the release of her debut album, hungover, while Top’s win comes after the success of his acclaimed debut album, Cold Beer & Country Music.
