The Artist Interview set for February 2024
With one week from CRS 2024 registration opening, Country Radio Seminar (CRS) is proud to announce a dynamic Artist Interview featuring breakout starlet Lainey Wilson engaging in a Q&A with award-winning artist, Trisha Yearwood. Departing from the norms of past keynote events, this year’s Artist Interview brings together Trisha Yearwood, a two-time CMA Female Vocalist of the Year, and Lainey Wilson, reigning CMA Female Vocalist and New Artist, for an exclusive and illuminating artist-to-artist exchange.
“CRS 2024 is honored to welcome two generations of award-winning female vocalists: Trisha Yearwood, interviewing Lainey Wilson in a unique first-time format for our annual ’Artist Interview’ series,” shares CRB/CRS Executive Director RJ Curtis. “Lainey is one of the most exciting new superstars of our genre, with a distinctive style that connects with fans on every level. Trisha brings a perspective only a legendary, successful, and highly decorated artist can. It will be a fascinating conversation at CRS in February!”
The session is sponsored by ASCAP. The specific date and time for the session will be announced at a later point.
