Watch a Sneak Peek of the CMA’s New “Forever Country” Video That Features 30 Country Stars

In honor of the CMA Awards 50th anniversary this year, 30 of country music’s biggest stars—both past and present—have joined forces to record a new song and video, “Forever Country.

The medley, which was released on Friday, Sept. 16, features a fresh take on three of country music’s most iconic songs: John Denver’s “Take Me Home,” Willie Nelson’s “On the Road Again” and Dolly Parton’s “I Will Always Love You.” The new tune, which was produced by Shane McAnally, features vocals from Willie, Dolly, George Strait, Reba McEntire, Alan Jackson, Tim McGraw, Blake Shelton, Carrie Underwood, Faith Hill, Keith Urban, Miranda Lambert and more.

The new video for “Forever Country” is set to debut on ABC’s Dancing With the Stars on Tuesday, Sept. 20, but you can check out the video’s teasers below.
