/in /by

The Atlanta Braves and CMT are partnering to host CMT Hot Prospects–a free, summer pre-game concert series at The Battery Atlanta, featuring some of country music’s rising stars, including Cooper Alan and Willie Jones with more artists to be announced. CMT Hot Prospects kicked off last weekend (July 31), with Alan’s performance on the Georgia Power Pavilion stage ahead of the Atlanta Braves vs. Milwaukee Brewers game.

Concert recaps, hosted by CMT’s Ashley ShahAhmadi, will air the following week as part of CMT Hot 20 Countdown, airing Saturdays and Sundays at 8 p.m. CT on CMT and promoted across the Atlanta Braves social channels. In addition to pre-game performances, each artist will be featured in various capacities within the game itself. 

“This partnership is a country music fan’s dream come true–Atlanta Braves baseball and live music! Each pre-game concert will feature some of CMT’s most promising new artists, our ‘hot prospects,’ who are well on their way to the big leagues of country music, delivering high energy entertainment directly to Braves fans attending the game in Atlanta and nationwide on our weekend series, CMT Hot 20 Countdown,” says Quinn Brown, executive producer of CMT Hot 20 Countdown.
