Ashely McBryde brought the fuzzy feelings of a backyard bonfire with friends to the 2023 ACM Music Awards on Thursday night (May 11th). For her performance, McBryde enlisted the help of Brandy Clark, Caylee Hammack, Pillbox Patti, & John Osborne for a powerful performance.
The four women stood close to each other as they belted out their song "Bonfire At Tina's," an ode to small-town female friendship off her 2022 concept album Lindeville. To immerse the crowd in the fictional town of Lindville, the stage was aglow with a roaring fire behind them.
