Gloriana
The concert opens with the up and coming trio Gloriana.
Gloriana is a relatively new trio with brothers Tom and Mike Gossin and Rachel Reinert who released their debut album in 2009 and went on to become the best-selling debut country act of 2009.
Gloriana debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard Country Albums chart and No. 3 on the Top 200 chart.
The hit single from that album, "Wild At Heart," became a gold-certified hit single. The band went on to win the fan-voted-on American Music Award for Breakthrough Artist and the "Nationwide On Your Side" honor at the CMT Awards.
In 2010, Gloriana won the Academy of Country Music's Award for Top New Vocal Group and were nominated for a Teen Choice Award for "Choice Country Group."
The group's second album, "A Thousand Miles Left Behind," is due for release in July. The first single off the album "Kissed You Good Night," is climbing the country charts, while its accompanying video had its premier on ABC Family in January.
Easton Corbin
Easton Corbin moved to Nashville in 2006 to try his hand at becoming a professional country singer.
He caught the attention of booking agent James Yelich and Universal Music Group Nashville's senior director of A&R, Joe Fisher, who signed him to the group's Mercury Nashville imprint in 2009.
He released his debut single "A Little More Country Than That," in July of 2009 and followed it with a four-song EP under the same title a month later.
Both releases led up to the arrival of his full-length debut, "Easton Corbin" in 2010.

He is in the elite company of Paul McCartney and John Lennon among songwriters who've written more than 20 songs that they've recorded and taken to the top of the charts.
Jackson is one of the 10 best-selling artists since the inception of SoundScan, ranking alongside the likes of Eminem and Metallica. Jackson has sold nearly 60 million albums worldwide, topped the country singles charts 35 times, and scored more than 50 Top-10 hits.
