Swindell had one of the most-talked-about CMA Awards performances of the night last Wednesday with the surprise appearance of country star Jo Dee Messina joining him to perform this special duet remix of five-week No. 1 single “She Had Me At Heads Carolina.” Messina is the original artist of the 90s country smash “Heads Carolina, Tails California,” and the inspiration for Swindell’s most recent career-defining hit.
“Cole Swindell pulled off the biggest surprise of the CMA Awards when he shocked viewers with a very special guest during his performance: Jo Dee Messina,” and “the audience inside Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena went wild at the sight of the country hitmaker.”
Swindell “transported the 2022 CMA Awards back to the ’90s with an energetic performance of his nostalgic track…” and the “crowd let out a joyful cheer as Messina joined Swindell to power through the infectious chorus of her beloved 90s hit.”
