    Carrie Underwood & Dwight Yoakam Light Up CMA Summer Jam with Unforgettable Duet

    It was a night of cowboy boots, rhinestones, and roaring guitars as Carrie Underwood and Dwight Yoakam brought down the house at Ascend Amphitheater in Downtown Nashville on Tuesday, July 27, for the opening of the CMA Summer Jam. The two GRAMMY-winning icons came together for a showstopping duet that honored the roots of country music and thrilled fans under the Tennessee stars.

    A Musical Moment: “A Thousand Miles from Nowhere” & “Guitars, Cadillacs”
    The crowd was treated to a powerful live rendition of Yoakam’s 1993 classic “A Thousand Miles from Nowhere”, followed by a high-energy take on “Guitars, Cadillacs.” As their harmonies rang out, the audience responded with thunderous applause and a standing ovation, affirming that these legends still have the power to move hearts and shake up a stage.

    “Never in a million years would I have thought I’d share the stage with someone this cool,” she wrote. “Dwight Yoakam, you are a LEGEND and now a friend as well! Thank you!”

    Underwood wowed the crowd not only with her voice but also with a dazzling custom DanielXDiamond ensemble. Her look included rhinestone-studded shorts, a Saint Laurent tee, and a shimmering cowboy hat inspired by Yoakam’s vintage style. The standout jacket began as a vintage Levi’s piece, reimagined with fringe and flair in Los Angeles.

    Designer Daniel Musto revealed the hat alone took over 25 hours to make, a testament to the artistry behind Underwood’s stage presence.
