Exclusive Performances

While we couldn’t kick up our boots in Nashville together, we still wanted to bring a taste of Music City to attendees virtually. So at the end of each week, attendees tuned in for an exclusive 30-minute concert featuring some of today’s biggest country music stars. ACM New Male Artist of the Year winner Riley Green closed out the first week of the conference on September 24, while double ACM award winner and GRAMMY nominee Lee Brice closed out Applied Net 2020 on October 8. Attendees were also able to take a break from sessions and enjoy 15-minute performances by some of country’s top singer-songwriters throughout the week.
