Round One Of CRS Acoustic Alley Talent

Country Radio Seminar (CRS) announced the first round of talent for Bob Kingsley’s Acoustic Alley, returning on Thursday, March 19, 2026 at 6:30pm in Legends D-G at the Omni Nashville Hotel.

The hallmark late-night event will spotlight some of the genre’s most iconic voices and songwriters, kicking off with a special celebration of ’90s Country, featuring three artists who have not only defined a generation of Country music but also helped shape its enduring legacy — (l-r): Clint Black, Steve Wariner, and Paul Overstreet.

Hosted by Fitz from Country Top 40, Bob Kingsley’s Acoustic Alley celebrates the craft of songwriting with performances from some of the most talented songwriters in the industry. Now in its 13th year, the event has become a cornerstone of CRS programming, offering attendees a rare opportunity to experience hit songs in their purest form, performed by the artists and writers who created them.

Sponsored by Country Top 40 with Fitz, Skyview Networks, and First Horizon Bank, with the bar sponsored by ASCAP, Bob Kingsley’s Acoustic Alley continues to be one of the most anticipated and talked-about events of CRS. Radio Ink will also honor its “Top Country PDs” during the event. Additional songwriters and performers will be announced in the coming weeks.
