Sara Evans helped to slow things down during tonight’s ABC ‘CMA Music Festival: Country’s Night to Rock’ special with her hit ‘A Little Bit Stronger,’ but that doesn’t mean she didn’t ‘wow.’

The ‘Born to Fly’ hitmaker delivered all of the soul and power that she’s known for, and the packed Nashville crowd didn’t seem to mind the ballad. The singer sported short shorts and a half on/half off top and clapped along to the beat of her band as she waltzed across the huge stage singing.

‘A Little Bit Stronger,’ from Evans’ sixth studio album, ‘Stronger,’ was co-penned by Lady Antebellum‘s Hillary Scott. Since its 2011 induction into country music radio, the song has seen success as the No. 1 US Country Songs hit and the No. 34 single on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart.
