Ashley McBryde is taking her 2026 CMA Fest run from the club circuit to Saturday morning television. She will deliver a three-song set on CBS Saturday Morning during the festival weekend in Nashville, giving viewers outside the city a chance to catch part of the performance tied to her fifth studio album, Wild.

That television slot lands after a busy start to her festival week. McBryde opened Wednesday with her Trybe Fan Club Party, then played Thursday at Spotify House at Ole Red, where Melissa Etheridge showed up during the set. Etheridge later followed McBryde down Lower Broadway to Redemption Bar, where Shelly Fairchild joined them for an acoustic round.

The CBS appearance matters because CMA Fest is already filling Nashville this weekend, and not everyone can be in the crowd. The broadcast is the only way many fans will see McBryde’s festival set, but it comes with a limit: they will get three songs, not the full live run. She has already pointed listeners toward Wild with her music and the album title that frames this stretch of appearances.

There is still one part of the weekend that stays firmly on the ground in Nashville. McBryde will be Artist of the Day at Fan Fair X inside Music City Center on Sunday, keeping her squarely in the festival spotlight after the television window closes. For fans following along from home, the broadcast offers a taste; for those in town, the rest of the weekend still belongs to the festival floor.
