Maren Morris Will NOT Perform at the 2021 CMT Music Awards

Maren Morris has pulled out of the CMT Music Awards – due to a scheduling conflict.

The “To Hell & Back” singer made the announcement via Instagram Stories.

Morris had been scheduled to perform with JP Saxe, for their debut performance of “Line By Line.”

However, it won’t be a duet, now.  “I know JP Saxe will slay it and I am so excited for his album to come out soon!” Morris said.

Morris is nominated for four CMT awards, the most of any artist.  She is nominated for Female Video Of The Year (“To Hell & Back”), Collaborative Video Of The Year (“Chasing After You” with her husband, Ryan Hurd), and two nominations in the Video Of The Year category.

Gabby Barrett has also pulled out of the CMT award perfomances, due to “personal circumstances.”
