Thomas Rhett proved he’s “Country Again” with a performance during the star-studded CMA Summer Jam broadcast on Thursday evening.
The superstar had the audience at Nashville’s Ascend Amphitheater in the palm of his hands as he performed not one, but three of his biggest hits.
Taking the stage to sing “Country Again,” “Crash and Burn” and “What’s Your Country Song,” Rhett’s on-stage confidence shined as he beamed with pride over the chance to perform in his hometown.
