CMT has announced that Hozier and Maren Morris will headline the next installment of “CMT Crossroads,” which will premiere at 10p/9c, with an immediate encore at 11p/10c, on Friday, September 22.
“CMT Crossroads: Hozier & Maren Morris” was filmed in Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena last month and will also air at 12p/11c on September 23. The show will go live on CMT.com, CMT VOD and the MTV app (CMT Crossroads) the same day, with subsequent premieres on CMT MUSIC and MTV LIVE.
“Getting to share songs with Maren Morris for ‘CMT Crossroads’ was a uniquely rewarding and fun experience,” Hozier said. “I’ve often felt a great deal of kinship between her work and my own. Getting to explore that and work alongside someone so outrageously talented was a joy. T here were moments on that stage that I got to be a musician, a performer, collaborator, and an audience member to Maren’s beautiful new music all at once.”
“Hozier is such a necessary artist to these times,” Morris added. “He meets every moment with tenderness, clever wit, and a strong moral stance for what is right. I’ve loved becoming friends with him over the years, and I truly consider him to be one of the best of our generation. It was so much fun to collaborate again.”
Hozier and Morris’ creative relationship dates back to 2019, when they collaborated on Morris’ hit “The Bones.”
“CMT Crossroads: Hozier & Maren Morris” includes a performance of “The Bones” along with her hits “My Church,” “Girl,” and her new emotional single, “The Tree.”
Morris joins Hozier on his songs “Take Me to Church,” “Work Song,” and two releases from his latest album, “Eat Your Young” and “All Things End.”
