ABC/Mark LevineBrett Eldredge will headline this year’s official Independence Day celebration in Nashville, and if you can’t make it there live in person, you’ll be able to watch it anyway.

For the first time ever, CMT will air a live 90-minute special featuring highlights of the annual concert, known as Let Freedom Sing! Music City July 4th.  Dylan Scott and ten-time CMA Musician of the Year Mac McAnally are on the bill as well.

The free live concert will take place at Fifth and Broadway in downtown Nashville. Afterwards, the celebration will shift to Ascend Amphitheatre on the Cumberland Riverfront, where the Nashville Symphony will supply live, synchronized music to accompany a world-class fireworks display.

Expect tune-in details to follow in the coming weeks.
