Up-and-comers know they’re on the right track when they’re invited to play the New Faces of Country Music show at Country Radio Seminar in Nashville. Only a handful of rising stars get the honor of performing before the industry crowd, which includes radio programmers, executives and members of the national media.
The 2020 New Faces class features Ingrid Andress, Morgan Evans, Riley Green, Runaway June and Mitchell Tenpenny. The new class will take the stage at the Omni Hotel for the 2020 New Faces show on Feb. 21.
This year’s class was narrowed down from a group of nominees that also included Hardy, Ryan Hurd, Tyler Rich and Matt Stell.
The New Faces of Country Music show can help artists reach the “next” level—just ask the 2014 class of Cam, Brothers Osborne, Kelsea Ballerini, Old Dominion and Chris Janson. The 2018 class featured Lauren Alaina, Luke Combs, Midland, Carly Pearce and Michael Ray. The 2019 class featured Dylan Scott, Jimmie Allen, Russell Dickerson, Lindsay Ell and LANCO.
