Lauren Mascitti 8:30pm-10:00pm

With a voice as pure as her heartland roots and a songwriting talent well beyond her years, Nashville-based singer/songwriter Lauren Mascitti is fast becoming one of country music’s most compelling new voices.

Millions first discovered Lauren during her unforgettable run on American Idol in 2020, but her journey as an artist began long before national television. A musical prodigy, Lauren was writing songs and performing by age 7, and by her teens was already captivating audiences six nights a week in Branson, Missouri alongside gospel legend and original Oak Ridge Boy, Gary McSpadden.

Since moving to Nashville from her hometown of Louisville, Ohio, Lauren has built an impressive resume that reads like a veteran’s dream — sharing stages and writing rooms with icons like Pam Tillis, Matraca Berg, Suzy Bogguss, Delbert McClinton, and Lonestar. She performed with Brad Paisley and Shania Twain in a nationally televised concert honoring healthcare heroes during the pandemic — a nod to her own background as a registered nurse.

Lauren’s heartfelt songwriting and soaring vocals have earned her coveted performances on the legendary Grand Ole Opry stage and secured opening slots on tour with Lonestar, including their historic first headlining show at the Iconic Ryman Auditorium.

Her breakout album God Made a Woman earned critical acclaim, landing on The New York Times and Saving Country Music’s Best Albums of 2020 lists and climbing to #4 on the iTunes Country Albums chart.

Now, with a brand new project produced by Dean Sams (founding member of Lonestar) on the way, Lauren Mascitti stands poised on the edge of a major breakthrough — bringing her timeless country sound, powerful stories, and undeniable authenticity to fans across the country.

RHETT AKINS 8:00pm-9:15pm

Rhett found his way to a professional music career when Decca Records (which had been reactivated then) heard one of his demos. He dropped his first album, A Thousand Memories, in 1995. The record was critically acclaimed and produced four chart singles including his first No. 1 hit, “That Ain’t My Truck,” which he also co-wrote. The song has since become Rhett’s signature song but his success story was just getting started. The following year he released Somebody New which produced another No. 1 hit, “Don’t Get Me Started.”

Overall Rhett has had an extremely impressive career. He’s not just been a successful solo artist, he’s also written chart toppers for some big names. Rhett has had 31 No. 1 singles (and counting), which is remarkable! Some of them include, Luke Bryan’s “I Don’t Want This Night to End and Huntin’ Fishin’ and Lovin’ Every Day,” Chris Young’s “I Can Take it From There,” Justin Moore’s “Point at You,”, Dustin Lynch’s “Mindreader” and Locash’s “I Know Somebody”. Rhett’s also responsible for Blake Shelton’s “All About Tonight,” “Boys ‘Round Here” and “Honey Bee,” the latter of which spent a total of four weeks at No. 1. His Jason Aldean cuts include “When She Says Baby,” “Just Gettin’ Started” and “Tonight Looks Good on You.” He had another three week No. 1 with Thomas Rhett’s “It Goes Like This.” He also wrote TR’s “Get Me Some of That” and “Star Of The Show” which was co-written with, Thomas Rhett and their first No. 1 together. In 2017, John Pardi’s “Dirt On My Boots” went No.1 and later that year, Dustin Lynch’s “Small Town Boy” spent 4 weeks at #1 on Billboard. Rhett celebrated with Thomas Rhett and fellow co-writers his 29th number one, “Life Changes” in 2018 and his 30th #1 with in the summer of 2019, “Look What God Gave Her”. In November of 2019, Rhett celebrated his 31st #1 with Brantley Gilbert’s “What Happens In A Small Town”.

This impressive list hasn’t gone unnoticed in the music industry. Rhett has been the recipient of renowned awards and titles. In 2010, Rhett was named the No. 4 Billboard Country Songwriter. The following year, BMI named him Songwriter of the Year. He won it again in 2014. His song “Honey Bee” became the highest selling digital debut by a country male solo artist. His biggest accomplishment, though, may be winning the CMA Triple Play award a total of seven times! The award is presented to a songwriter who penned three No. 1 singles in 12 months and he won it in October 2010, January 2012, February 2014, February 2015, February 2016, February 2017, and again in February 2018! In April 2018 Rhett was named Songwriter of the Year and in September 2019 names the first Songwriter of the Decade by the Academy of Country Music. In July 2021, Rhett was announced as an inductee into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame class of 2021.

Rhett Akins has already achieved so much as both an artist and a songwriter, but he’s not done yet.
