Luke Bryan Lights Up CMA Awards With Epic Medley of Hits

The CMA co-host made time to jump onstage and sing a few tunes.

Luke Bryan may be serving as a co-host alongside Peyton Manning at the 2023 CMA Awards, but he had time to jump onstage and sing a few tunes. In fact, the singer took the stage to perform a lively medley featuring some of his biggest hits.

Bryan looked at right at home on the stage situated in the middle of the arena and surrounded by fans. He started his mini-set with what seems to be a pretty autobiographical song for the artist: "Huntin,' Fishin,' and Lovin' Everyday." Bryan brought loads of energy and he looked to be having a genuinely good time, as he often does when he performs.

From there, Bryan kept the party going and brought out the tequila with "One Margarita." Then the lights turned red as Bryan segued into "That's My Kind of Night" while showing fans and viewers that he certainly can shake it. He dropped the tempo slightly for only a moment, singing "Play It Again," before launching into his final (and one of his most boisterous) songs, "Country Girl (Shake It For Me)." He again showed off his signature dance moves while he riled up the crowd in the process.

Country music's biggest night features performances from Carly Pearce and Chris Stapleton, Jelly Roll, Kelsea Ballerini, Kenny Chesney, Zac Brown Band and Mac McAnally (Jimmy Buffett Tribute), Lainey Wilson, Luke Combs and many more. The show is hosted by Bryan and Manning, and it aired on Wednesday, Nov. 8 on ABC at 8 p.m. It is available to stream the next day on Hulu.
