Rascal Flatts made an appearance at the Grand Ole Opry last night as the kick–off to a full week of activities leading to their LP Field performance next Saturday night as a part of CMA Music Festival.

After a 3-song performance the band was requested back on stage by a crowd that remained on their feet and chanted “more, more!” Gary, Jay and Joe Don returned to the Opry stage for an encore with their Grammy-winning song “Bless The Broken Road.”

Rascal Flatts will film a video for their upcoming single “Easy” with Natasha Bedingfield in Nashville on Monday, June 6 followed by a performance on the CMT Awards on Wednesday, June 8, (7pm CST), an appearance in the Big Machine Records autograph booth on Friday and a LP Field concert performance Saturday, June 11.

After wrapping CMA Music Festival, Rascal Flatts will head into full show production rehearsals as they lead into the launch of their new summer tour Flatts Fest on June 18 in Bristow, Virginia.
