With their incredible energy and vocal prowess, the voice coach Reba McEntire, Sunday night football Star Carrie underwood, and the legendary Dolly parton enthralled the audience with a powerful trio performance of “those memories of you,” igniting the cmas. The 2019 Country Music Association Awards started off with an amazing performance by Dolly Parton, Carrie Underwood, and Reba McEntire, who sang “Those Memories Of You.” Later, they were joined by Martina McBride, Jennifer Nettles, and Tanya Tucker for a mix of popular country songs.

The three stars kicked things off with a fun introduction, mentioning the nominees for Performer of the Year, like Keith Urban and his wife, Nicole Kidman.

Underwood, who had been co-hosting the awards with Brad Paisley for many years, made a funny comment about how she was replacing him with McEntire and Parton. Their performance of “Those Memories Of You” was a tribute to the famous 1987 album Trio by Parton, Linda Ronstadt, and Emmylou Harris, which included that song.
