Kane Brown to Co-Host the 2023 CMT Music Awards Alongside Kelsea Ballerini

Kane Brown is coming back for more!

The country star will return as co-host of the 2023 CMT Music Awards alongside Kelsea Ballerini, CBS and CMT announced on Thursday.

Brown, 29, is also set to perform at the fan-voted award show when it airs live from the Moody Center in Austin, Texas on April 2. He and wife Katelyn Brown will sing their chart-topping single "Thank God" for the first time.

The co-hosting gig is just the latest development for Brown, who will also make his acting debut on the CBS series Fire Country on April 7. The "One Mississippi" singer will play Robin, an "enigmatic, modern-day train hopper who helps injured patients on the scene of a crash," according to a press release.

The musician released his third album, Different Man, in September, and will hit the road for a lengthy tour starting in March.
