Nickelback and Hardy team up for an epic collaboration as part of the iconic CMT Crossroads series. So, what can listeners expect from this latest crossover?
CMT Crossroads Is A Legendary Series
As an artist, when you become successful in a particular style or genre, it can be tempting to take on the “if it ain’t broken, don’t fix it” mindset. After all, once you crack the code and find the winning formula, why mess with something that is working?
However, since first kicking off all the way back in January of 2002, CMT Crossroads brings together two famous artists or bands that might not normally cross paths. What comes of these epic pairings is renditions of songs that blend both styles to create something entirely new.
With over 22 seasons and more than 70 episodes to its credit, CMT Crossroads continues to be a hit with fans, and the show isn’t slowing down whatsoever.

There may be no more natural pairing for CMT Crossroads than Nickelback and Hardy. Both appeal to country and rock audiences, both worked with producer Joey Moi, and both have a song called “Rockstar.” On April 6, they’ll mash up their respective styles — and their “Rockstar” singles — for an episode of CMT’s crossover performance series.
Recorded in Nashville earlier in March, the episode features Hardy and Nickelback frontman Chad Kroeger trading verses on Nickelback’s “Save Me” and “Animals,” and Hardy hits “Truck Bed” and “Give Heaven Some Hell.

Katy Perry and Kacey Musgraves are a match made in country-pop heaven, at least judging from how well they harmonized in their taping of Cmt Crossroads — not to mention in their joint interview for the cover story of Billboard's May 31 edition. In advance of their Crossroads episode's premiere June 13, and their double-billing on tour come August, we bring you more of that interview, where we find out some of the things they have in common (like Patty Griffin adoration) and some of the

Between picking up two Grammys and an Acm, it's been a whirlwind couple of months for Kacey Musgraves. The country singer can add another accolade to her already-impressive resumé, though: She was the first artist in her genre to perform at the GLAAD Media Awards. "I can't tell you what it means to me to be here representing country music - and to play a song that has opened a lot of minds," Musgraves, 25, told People at the 25th Annual GLAAD Media Awards in New York City on Saturday. "I'm just very honored and proud." After a warm introduction by out country artist Chely Wright,...

Katy Perry and Kacey Musgraves will be tour mates this summer, but first the two will come together for the 50th episode of “Crossroads,” Cmt’s innovative series that pairs country artists with acts from another genre. “Cmt Crossroads: Katy Perry and Kacey Musgraves” will premiere June 13, not only on Cmt, but on sister stations VH1, MTV, MTV Hits and Palladia. The show should provide a big boost for Musgraves, who won Grammys this January for best country song and best country album, but has yet to break through into the mainstream. As with past episodes, Perry and Musgraves will share stories and songs in the hour-long episode. Past pairings have include Def Leppard with Taylor Swift, Bon Jovi and Sugarland, Stevie Nicks and Lady Antebellum, Elvis Costello and Lucinda Williams, and, most recently, Dierks Bentley with OneRepublic. Perry's tour kicks off June 22 in Raleigh, N.C.
