Cam and Alicia Keys to perform
"Girl Crush" tonight on the ACM Honors Awards
9pm ET/PT on CBS
Two-time
CMA nominated Country singer-songwriter and multi-platinum R&B
recording artist share the stage for the first time in a performance not
to be missed
Who's your #girlcrush now?
Tune
in to watch one of the must-see and most talked about performances of
the night...Grammy nominated Cam, and multi-platinum recording artist
Alicia Keys performing "Girl Crush" as a mark of respect to the nights'
Crystal Milestone Award winners Little Big Town.
"Girl
Crush", written by Lori McKenna, Hillary Lindsey and Liz Rose and
recorded by Grammy award winning country artists Little Big Town caused
quite the controversy when the song was released late 2014 for its
perceived provocative lyrics. The track went on to receive numerous
awards for the band and its songwriters, including two CMA's, two
Grammys and a CMT Award and has sold more than 3 million copies to date.
"That
was one of the most magical moments I've had on stage, and of course it
was at the Ryman!" said Cam. "Alicia is so insanely talented and such a
gracious person to work with. We both felt so honored to be celebrating
Little Big Town together." With Cam on guitar and Alicia on piano, the
duo delivered a mind-blowing performance that received one of the
biggest and loudest standing ovations of the evening.
The
two girls also have a lot more in common than one would think,
including: both have worked with Jeff Bhasker, last years recipient of
the 'Producer of the Year' Grammy award. Bhasker is Cam's executive
producer and co-writer of her break-out hit "Burning House" and most
noticeably, Alicia's co-producer and co-writer of "Girl on Fire",
amongst others; both girls are also Sony label mates.
