The Band Perry Duet with Tyler Ward

The Academy of Country Music is using newer and hipper ways to promote this year’s awards show. You might remember the funny video campaigns that nominees put together to win votes from fans…Easton Corbin's clips of re-made commercials...The JaneDear Girls parody of "On a Boat". Some of those videos have even gone viral.

Well now, in a brand new video campaign to promote the ACM’s, country stars are teaming up with singers who were discovered performing their hits on YouTube. Sugarland, Eric Church, Luke Bryan and The Band Perry are all participating in those promotional videos.

The Band Perry hooked up with YouTube sensation, Tyler Ward, to help him sing “If I Die Young.” Tyler tells all about how the opportunity to sing with TBP came his way in a how his  behind the scenes video. Check it out:

Um...I think Tyler may have a crush on Kimberly. : )

Not bad for singing right there on the spot! And it seems like they had fun together...

Luke Bryan teamed up with the trio, Boyce Avenue, and sang "Someone Else Calling You Baby." I talked to Luke on Monday at his #1 party for the song, and Luke said the trio gave him one of  their cd's...and he's been listening to it in his truck ever since!  Here's their behind the scenes video:
