Jackson's Last Call adds Strait, Wilson
The concert will be held on Saturday, June 27 at Nashville's Nissan Stadium.
Strait and Jackson have teamed up many times. Their history includes the duets "Designated Drinker" and the CMA Award-winning "Murder on Music Row" and a concert album and DVD with the late Jimmy Buffett. After the passing of George Jones in 2013, the two performed "He Stopped Loving Her Today" at that year's CMA Awards. They teamed up again for a medley of Jackson's "Remember When" and Strait's "Troubadour" a decade ago as the CMA Awards celebrated its 50th anniversary.
WIlsone was part of the all-star lineup that saluted Jackson when he received the Country Music Association's Willie Nelson Lifetime Achievement Award at the 2022 CMA Awards, performing "Chasin' That Neon Rainbow" before joining him and others on an all-star rendition of "Don't Rock the Jukebox."
Previously announced participants include Luke Bryan, Eric Church, Luke Combs, Riley Green, Cody Johnson, Miranda Lambert, Little Big Town, Jake Owen, Jon Pardi, Thomas Rhett, Carrie Underwood and Lee Ann Womack long with Adam Wright, Big City Brian Wright and Carlisle Wright.
