CMT has revealed details regarding the next installment of its popular “Crossroads” franchise.
The show will air on Wednesday, December 6 at 10PM ET.
Set to tape in Nashville, it will pair Kesha with Old Crow Medicine Show.
According to CMT, the artists will play songs from Kesha’s recently released album “Rainbow.”
They will also team on Old Crow Medicine Show’s beloved “Wagon Wheel.” A full setlist, as well as more details on the episode, should emerge soon.
“I grew up on country music, it was the first music I sang, listened to, and wrote as a child, and I’m especially stoked to be collaborating with Old Crow Medicine Show,” said Kesha. “I’ve always admired early country artists such as Hank Williams, Johnny Cash, Dolly Parton, Gram Parsons, and Loretta Lynn, and the outlaw attitude of some of those early country artists who helped create rock and roll. To me, Old Crow Medicine Show epitomizes that attitude and wildness while also being amazing songwriters and performers.”
“Old Crow is so excited to be working with Kesha on this project,” added band member Ketch Secor. “Through our nearly 20 years of performing together our band has enjoyed many different kinds of musical collaborations, but this will be our first time working together with a pop star. We love Kesha’s style and we’re all looking forward to what we’ll come up with together.”
