Make sure ‘Friends Don’t’ let you miss these 2020 Carolina Country Music Fest artists

The countdown to this year’s Carolina Country Music Fest is underway, which can only mean the lineup for the highly anticipated Myrtle Beach event continues to grow.

Country duo Maddie & Tae, known for hits “Girl In A Country Song,” “Die From A Broken Heart” and “Friends Don’t,” will join the already impressive mixture of celebrated country artists during the four-day outdoor event taking place June 4-7.

With nearly half the lineup revealed, the remaining group of nearly 30 singers and bands will continue to be announced in the coming months, with four more artists announcements happening this week.

The event has become a staple in Myrtle Beach since its inception in 2015, attracting more than 30,000 country music fans who come dressed to party in their cowboy boots and country garb. The annual event is held at Burroughs & Chapin Pavilion Place on Ocean Boulevard between 8th and 9th Avenues North.
