Carrie Underwood, Alabama + More to Perform at 2011 ACM Awards

Carrie Underwood and a slew of artists have been added to the schedule of performers at the 46th annual Academy of Country Music Awards, which will be co-hosted by Reba McEntire and Blake Shelton live on Sunday, April 3 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

Other new additions to the all-star lineup include Alabama, Dierks Bentley, Ronnie Dunn, Sara Evans, Martina McBride, Reba, Shelton and Zac Brown Band with James Taylor. It's truly a "Who's Who" of country music taking the stage in Sin City in early April!

New presenters include TV personalities Ryan Seacrest and Nancy O’Dell.

Previously announced talent includes Jason Aldean, Toby Keith, Miranda Lambert, Brad Paisley, Taylor Swift and Keith Urban. Be sure and tune in at 8PM ET on CBS (it’s delayed for those living in the PT time zone) if you are a tried and true country music fan, because the genre’s brightest stars and hottest emerging acts are all collected under one roof for this event. How often does that happen?

Many of the ladies that are performing at the ACMs will be honored with the 'Girls Night Out' special, set for April 22.
