Kane Brown, Maren Morris, Thomas Rhett, Miranda Lambert, the Brothers Osborne, Chris Stapleton, Little Big Town and George Strait are all scheduled to perform live during the awards show, which will take place at the MGM Grand Arena in Las Vegas, Nev., on April 7. More performers are expected to be announced in the coming weeks.
