The star-studded special featuring John Legend, Luke Bryan, Miranda Lambert and more airs April 5 on CBS.
Country music is bringing us hope and entertainment in this difficult time of coronavirus.
Gayle King revealed on CBS This Morning on Tuesday that she'll be hosting ACM Presents: Our Country, a star-studded two-hour special that will bring together some of the biggest names in country music for in-home acoustic performances, conversations and a look back at past ACM Awards moments. The event will air in place of the ACM Awards, which like most other live events, was recently postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Read on for information on how to watch the special, as well as who's performing and more.

You can also watch on Hulu with Live TV, YouTube TV and AT&T Now if you're a subscriber to one of those services, all of which offer a 7-day free trial.
Who's performing? While we're sad the ACM Awards are not happening as planned, the Our Country special thankfully will not be lacking in the genre's biggest names.
