Rascal Flatts Jimmy Kimmel Live

Big Machine Records supergroup, Rascal Flatts are showing no signs of slowing down. After headlining Taste of Country music festival back in June and bringing their ‘Summer Playlist Tour’ to PNC Banks Arts Center in New Jersey in the same week, Rascal Flatts is proving that they’re a pillar in the industry. To celebrate and promote their current Top 20 hit, “Back To Life” the men performed on the outdoor stage at Jimmy Kimmel LIVE last night for an incredible performance in Los Angeles.

Record in hand, host Jimmy Kimmel welcomed the superstar vocal group to the stage, as part of the impressive summer concert series. “Here with the song “Back To Life” Rascal Flatts,” exclaimed Kimmel as the crowd erupted into cheers and applause. The trio performed in front of a packed out group of fans with a moving sunset background to add to the ambiance of the love song. As always, the group delivered unmatched vocals and harmonies, as well as, the unique style that they have cultivated over the last decade.

We are hopeful that “Back To Life” will become Rascal Flatts 18th number one song before the year is up! Check out their epic performance of the tune below.

In an unaired encore performance, the trio had the audience dancing and singing along to their song “I Like Sound of That.” The 2016 track is one of their many number one singles. The lead singer encouraged the audience to “throw your hands up in the air!” and they obliged without hesitation. Equally as impressive, the supergroup sure know how to hit their sweet spot every time!

Rascal Flatts will continue to play shows on their Summer Playlist Tour, which is stacked with an impressive group of openers on select dates. For more information, head to rascalflatts.com.

Multi-platinum selling singer-songwriter, Jake Owen returned to the Mercedes-Benz Concert Series stage last night to perform his latest single, “Down To The Honkytonk.”

Host Jimmy Kimmel, joined the outdoor audience to introduce the country superstar and gave mention to his brand new country music competition show entitled ‘Real Country’. Owen gave a quick birthday shout-out to Kimmel before vocalizing the lighthearted, fun track. Joined by his six-piece band, the Big Loud Records artist had the entire crowd clapping and dancing along to every beat while strumming along to his own guitar.

Off camera, the singer-songwriter continued the outdoor mini-concert with his hit “I Was Jack (You Were Diane)”, along with “Made For You” from his latest self-titled EP, as well as “LAX” off of his 2016 studio album entitled American Love. The country star surely brought some Nashville vibes to Los Angeles.

Just two hours after receiving the American Music Award for Favorite Female Country Artist for the fourth consecutive year in a row and performing “Spinning Bottles” during the award show, Carrie Underwood took the stage at Jimmy Kimmel Live! for the debut performance of the track “Ghosts On The Stereo” from her sixth studio album, Cry Pretty.  Penned by Tom Douglas, Hillary Lindsey and the late Andrew Dorff, “Ghosts On The Stereo” tells the story of a person reclusively letting themselves emotionally fall apart at home due to a failed relationship one final time, before pulling themselves together and moving on.

Closing out the show, Jimmy Kimmel introduced the performance with a Cry Pretty vinyl in-hand, “This is her album, it’s called Cry Pretty. Here with her song “Ghosts On The Stereo”, Carrie Underwood.”  Backed by a full band, Underwood took the stage in a gorgeous metallic blouse that put her adorable baby bump on display.  The crowd began to sway along to every word but once the beat drop at the end of the first chorus hit, the audience transitioned into full-fledged dancing.  As always, her astonishing vocal range made this yet another unforgettable performance.  Off camera, the country superstar continued her outdoor mini-concert with two of her older hits, “Before He Cheats” and “Dirty Laundry,” as well as the new album’s title track, “Cry Pretty,” and powerful anthem “Love Wins.”

The singer-songwriter undoubtedly gave fans watching Jimmy Kimmel Live! a taste of what’s to come on her ‘Cry Pretty Tour 360’ which will kick off next Spring with special guests Maddie & Tae and Runaway June. The tour will touch down in New York City on October 2, 2019, at the iconic Madison Square Garden. Tickets are available here.

Last night you had not one, but two chances to catch Brett Eldredge on your television screen. Earlier in the evening, Eldredge was seen performing on the ‘Music Event of the Summer’ CMA Fest, where he performed “The Long Way”. Soon after he took over late night T.V. on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, performing as part of the concert series presented by Mercedes Benz. Eldredge is not new to Kimmel, he first made his debut on the show in 2015 performing “Lose My Mind” and “Drunk on Your Love” while also appearing in the Mean Tweets Country Music Editions.

Last night he closed out Kimmel performing his new hit single “Love Someone” from his self-titled album. As the music started to play, Eldredge, who was full of energy began his set asking the crowd “Y’all ready to get down tonight? I’m ready for you, here we go!” During the performance, the country star was seen dancing in sync with his lyrics and interacting with the crowd telling them it “Feels good to love you!”

“Love Someone” ended on a high note but that wasn’t the end of the night for the crowd watching Eldredge perform live. Off camera, Eldredge continued his set with other hit singles for the audience like “Drunk On Your Love “and “Wanna Be That Song”. He also performed “The Long Way” which can be seen on Jimmy Kimmel’s YouTube channel.

If you didn’t have the chance to catch The Long Way Tour yet this year, the second leg of the tour starts up in September with Devin Dawson and Abby Anderson. As well as playing other shows throughout the summer. For New Yorkers, Eldredge is performing on August 23rd at BMHMC Amphitheater at Bald Hill in Long Island with Morgan Evans and Stephanie Quayle.
