The first round of performers for the Country Music Association Awards (aka CMA's) were announced this morning (October 18), and the list is nothing short of star-studded. Carrie Underwood, Luke Bryan, Garth Brooks, Eric Church, Miranda Lambert, Chris Stapleton, Thomas Rhett, Little Big Town, Old Dominion, Brothers Osborne and Jon Pardi.

Also on the initial performers bill is 16-time CMA Awards winner (and 81-time nominee) Alan Jackson, who will be inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame on Oct. 22. When not performing, Underwood will be teaming up with Brad Paisley to host the awards once again, marking their 10th year together serving as emcees.

The 2017 CMAs will air live from Nashville's Bridgestone Arena on Nov. 8 starting at 8 p.m. EST on ABC. For more information, visit CMAawards.com.
