ACM Awards 2017: Best Performances From Miranda Lambert, Sam Hunt And More

Last night’s 2017 ACM Awards were full of performances. With country music’s biggest stars such as Miranda Lambert, Florida Georgia Line and Tim McGraw taking the stage, it’s tough to pick the greatest performance of the night, but these six acts put on some of night’s best. Check out the six best performances below:

Florida Georgia Line and Backstreet Boys

Teaming up with the Backstreet Boys, Florida Georgia Line blended country and pop when they performed “God, Your Mama and Me.” While that song choice was no surprise, it was a shock when the two groups then performed “Everybody (Backstreet’s Back),” complete with choreography.

Miranda Lambert

There’s a reason Lambert won female vocalist of the year, and it was on display during her performance. Hitting the stage with only her guitar, Lambert brought the house down when she sang her breakup ballad, “Tin Man.”

Lady Antebellum

Mixing country with funk and other genres, Lady Antebellum performed the lead single from their upcoming album and stole the show thanks to their horn section.

Little Big Town

The country group hasn’t been afraid to take risks as of late and continued that trend at the 2017 ACM Awards. With a stage full of hippie imagery, the group brought flower-power to the ACM Awards when they performed “Happy People.”

Sam Hunt

Sorry ladies, Sam Hunt is off of the market. We now know this after Hunt’s performance which featured him hopping off the stage and singing to a woman in the crowd. While performing “Body Like a Back Road,” Hunt made his way to fiancee Hannah Lee Fowler and sang to her, showing off his engagement ring.

Tim McGraw And Faith Hill

Country music’s biggest couple gave their first performance of their duet “Speak to a Girl” and put on a great performance. Starting on different ends of the stage, the couple met in the middle of stage as light shined down on them.
