Lauren with her very capable crew kicked off the festivities with the country inspired "One Trick Pony" that rode into "Gatlinburg" and "Amarillo Sky". Before playing that Jason Aldean cover, Watkins shared with the crowd that she enjoys turkey hunting with her dad. Apparently, they have a playlist that they listen to on their way to the woods and that song is on it - and her rendition was enjoyed by both of her parents who were in the house celebrating this big night with their daughter. "Shirley Temple" was a flavorful drinking song and Laurne closed her solid set with the relatable "Stuck in my Ways".

Josh who was backed by a full band came out swinging with covers and originals. Josh mentioned being on the road a lot and was happy to be home for this one night at BMI. He opened with the popular "On a Different Night". Singles such as "Red Flags", "Tell Me Lies", "Single Again" and "Moving On" reflected Ross's thoughts on relationships. Josh closed with his charting "Ain't Doin' Jack" and "Trouble" to the delight of his fans in attendance who on a number of occasions were singing along with Ross adding to the fun energy of his set.
