Little Big Town brought “Wine, Beer and Whiskey” to Broadway in Nashville, Tenn. during the 2021 ACM Awards on Sunday, April 18.
“We’ll be doing our new song ‘Wine, Beer, Whiskey,’” Little Big Town explained ahead of their performance. “We have a very special performance – Something we’ve never done before. Completely different and completely unique to Nashville but we’re going to keep it a surprise. It took us all night long – the first shot was at 3am.”
During the performance, the group was down a member, as Phillip Sweet was unable to appear due to an illness.
