The CMT network is launching a summertime concert event that it hopes will become an annual tradition, with the first year's featured artist being Jason Aldean.
CMT is filming an Aldean concert taking place at a festival in Chicago on June 19, and will turn it into a two-hour television show.
Besides the performance, CMT will weave in backstage interviews and behind-the scenes moments.
