First Round of Performers Announced for 2014 CMT Music Awards

The 2014 CMT Music Awards are less than a month away, and we now know at least some of the artists who will take the stage for the star-studded show.

Blake Shelton, Carrie Underwood, Luke Bryan, Eric Church, Florida Georgia Line and Miranda Lambert have all been announced as performers for the live TV broadcast.

Additional artists, as well as the evening's host, will be announced at a later date.

The CMT Music Awards are fan voted. Lambert leads the pack of nominees with six nods, followed by Bryan and Florida Georgia Line, who have five nominations apiece. Shelton, Church and Underwood are each nominated in two categories.

All of the performers are in the running for the night's highest honor, Video of the Year.

Voting will be open at CMT.com or at CMT Mobile from a mobile device until June 1.

The 2014 CMT Music Awards will air live from Nashville's Bridgestone Arena on June 4 at 8PM ET on CMT.
