CMT revs up music slate with revival of iconic music series "CMT Storytellers" and greenlights second season of "CMT Campfire Sessions"

"CMT Campfire Sessions: Little Big Town" special to air Tuesday, April 12 at 8p/7c; Season Two of CMT's fan-favorite summer series to premiere Summer 2022

Legendary music franchise returns for the first time ever on CMT; "CMT Storytellers: Brooks & Dunn" to air Wednesday, April 13 at 8p/7c

NASHVILLE, TN - (March 30, 2022) - CMT today announced two new series greenlights: the revival of one of television's most influential and storied music franchises, "CMT Storytellers," and a second season of fan-favorite summertime series, "CMT Campfire Sessions," kicking off with two special episodes headlined by superstar acts Brooks & Dunn and Little Big Town, respectively.

"It's an honor to be given the reins to reviving one of the most iconic music series of our generation as we bring the Storytellers franchise to CMT for the first time, following an unprecedented 97-episode run on our sister network VH1. A legendary series requires an equally epic kickoff and we're proud to have Brooks & Dunn, two of our genre's greatest storytellers, helping mark its momentous return," shared Margaret Comeaux, Executive Producer and CMT's Senior Vice President of Production.

"Equally exciting is the return of our homegrown series CMT Campfire Sessions, beloved by artists and fans alike. Our favorite foursome Little Big Town shines bright in the intimate, fireside setting as they help us celebrate an upcoming slate of new must-see summertime jam sessions that mixes new music and greatest hits. Whether around the campfire or in front of a small crowd of devoted fans, both of these series strip the music back to its very core: storytelling," continued Comeaux.
