After a storming set at the very first C2C in 2013, Carrie Underwood is the first headliner to be announced for Country to Country in 2016.
Chris York, promoter at SJM said: “Country to Country is delighted to welcome Carrie Underwood back to the event as headliner in our fourth year. In addition to The O2, London we are delighted to have her help launch our inaugural Glasgow event and our third year of C2C in Dublin.
“Carrie helped establish the event in our first year and the creation of the biggest celebration of country music outside North America. Country to Country is proud to have event partners BBC Radio 2 and the Country Music Association on board."
The full event line up and on-sale details will be exclusively revealed during a C2C Launch Party at Brooklyn Bowl on Tuesday 6 October.
Following the C2C Launch Party there will be a special C2C Presents Little Big Town show. The 2014 CMA Vocal Group of the Year and Grammy Award-winners Little Big Town have enjoyed huge critical and popular success with their latest album Pain Killer on Capitol/Decca.
The four piece group comprises Karen Fairchild, Phillip Sweet, Kimberly Schlapman and Jimi Westbrook. The first single off Pain Killer was the American No. 1 “Day Drinking” which was playlisted at BBC Radio 2 and their latest single, “Girl Crush” – the biggest country music hit of 2015 so far – will be out in the UK soon.
