The Academy of Country Music Awards unveiled its second round of performers for its 54th annual ceremony, which is scheduled for Sunday, April 7, at MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

The Fort Worth-born and Burleson-raised pop giant Kelly Clarkson made this list along with other talent, such as Brandi Carlile, Dierks Bentley, Dan + Shay, Ashley McBryde, Florida Georgia Line, Eric Church, Luke Combs and recent Country Music Hall of Fame inductees Brooks & Dunn.

North Texas-affiliated artists Maren Morris and Miranda Lambert made the cut for the ceremony’s first wave of artists, sharing an already-stacked lineup with George Strait, Chris Stapleton, Thomas Rhett, Reba McEntire, Kane Brown, Brothers Osborne, Jason Aldean and Little Big Town.

Additional performing acts and presenters are expected to be announced in the days leading up to the event.

McEntire will host the affair, as she’s done 15 times in previous years. Nominations earned by North Texas artists are as follows:
