Posted on November 1, 2016

For the 50th annual CMA Awards on Nov. 2, Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood are teaming up for a medley of duets by some of country music’s most dynamic twosomes, including Loretta Lynn and Conway Twitty and Tammy Wynette and George Jones. But Garth and Trisha aren’t the only top-shelf tandem taking the stage.

ABC’s Good Morning America reported today (Nov. 1) that George Strait and Alan Jackson will perform together during the golden anniversary show.

George and Alan teamed up at the CMA Awards in 1999 when they performed “Murder on Music Row,” a tune that was later featured on George’s Latest Greatest Straitest Hits album in 2000. The song won the CMA Award for Vocal Event of the Year in 2000.
