Kelsea Ballerini performed her latest single “Hole In The Bottle” during the 2020 CMA Awards on Wednesday, November 11.
Ballerini kicked off her set wearing the same hat that was seen in the Shania Twain “Man, I Feel Like A Women” music video. She ended her performance with a nod to Shania Twain saying “Let’s Go Girls,” teasing the release of her “Hole In The Bottle” collaboration with Shania Twain that she says will be released tomorrow (Nov. 12).
The track was co-written by Ballerini alongside Jesse Frasure, Hillary Lindsey, Ashley Gorley and Steph Jones.
The song marks Ballerini’s first-ever drinking song which finds the superstar drowning her sorrows with a bottle of red wine.
“Hole In the Bottle” is featured on her album, Kelsea. The Tennessee native recently dropped the reimagined version of her latest album, Kelsea, dubbed ballerini, offering stripped-down performances of each track.
