Just when you think it can't get any hotter, more superstar performers have been announced for "CMA Music Festival: Country's Night to Rock" airing Tuesday, Aug. 5 (8 p.m.), on ABC.

Adding their chops and charm to the special are Luke Bryan, Eric Church with special guest Lzzy Hale of Halestorm, Florida Georgia Line, Brantley Gilbert, Lady Antebellum, and Blake Shelton with special guest season-two contestant on "The Voice" Gwen Sebastian.

Hosted for the second year by reigning CMA Vocal Group of the Year, Little Big Town, the special was filmed during the sold-out CMA Music Festival in June. The annual conclave is a four-day party celebrating America's music in the epicenter of the format, Nashville.

Previously announced performers include Jason Aldean, Dierks Bentley, Hunter Hayes, Miranda Lambert, Brad Paisley, Rascal Flatts, Thomas Rhett, Cole Swindell, The Band Perry, Carrie Underwood and Keith Urban.

The special first aired in 2004. This is the 10th time ABC will broadcast the special - which invites the whole country to America's largest country music celebration.
