We had some fun with Chase Rice, Jimmie Allen, Blanco Brown, Adam Craig, Lindsay Ell, Tyler Farr, King Calaway, LOCASH and Runaway June backstage at the Firestone Country Roads Stage at Ascend Amphitheater during CMA Fest on Thursday (June 6).
Prior to taking the stage, they played a round of Country Now Confessions and revealed some interesting things about themselves, such as their guilty pleasure song, the last artist they sent a text to, their favorite artist to party with and much more.
Runaway June shared a story about an embarrassing encounter with they once had with Keith Urban, while LOCASH shared an incredible story about their most memorable moment with a fan.
Watch the video above for all of the Country Now Confessions.
