The country duo Florida Georgia Line, Tyler Hubbard and Brian Kelley, will perform live for the season 3 premiere of Nashville, on Wednesday, September 24 at 10pmET on ABC. They will actually perform twice — one for the East Coast airing, the other for the West Coast. Fans might notice a little added sparkle in their eyes. Hubbard just proposed to his girlfriend Hayley Stommel (she said yes!) and newlywed Kelley is still reeling from his winter wedding. He married college co-ed Brittany Marie Cole. (They got married in their Nashville home.)
Nashville actors/musicians Charles Esten (Deacon Claybourne) and Chris Carmack (Will Lexington) will join Florida Georgia Line for the two live performances. At the end of Season 2, Will came out as gay to his wife Layla; he’ll open Season 3 with the song “If It’s Love.” And Deacon proposed to Rayna (Connie Britton). She’s still thinking about it. Esten will sing, “I Know How To Love You Now.”
