Luke Bryan and Dierks Bentley are set to co-host the upcoming ACM Awards for the second consecutive year, and they have a contingency plan if anything goes drastically wrong.
Two of country music's brightest stars are re-teaming to co-host the 2017 ACM Awards in Las Vegas. Luke Bryan and Dierks Bentley have been tapped to host the awards show airing on April 2. The announcement was made during a commercial that aired during the 59th annual Grammy Awards on Sunday (Feb. 12).
It's no surprise that Maren Morris picked up some major Grammy love when the 2017 nominations were announced on Tuesday morning (Dec. 6), but others were more eye-opening.
Dierks Bentley has been a country staple for over a decade, but how well do you really know the 'I Hold On' hitmaker? This kid from Arizona took the long route to Nashville, and once there, success hardly came easily. Watch to find out what he was like as a kid, how he met his wife and which famous rocker he's friends with.
Dierks Bentley songs have consistently alternated between rowdy party anthems and deeply sensual slow jams. Few artists can pull off both with such proficiency.
