15 Fresh Faces Of Country

Mickey Guyton has been making waves lately—both in the beauty and country music worlds—so it’s great to see her right back where she started. This singer was born in Arlington, Texas, which is home to the Dallas Cowboys and the 50th ACM Awards. There’s no place like home. Just ask Mickey!

Ashley Monroe looked fierce in a plunging black-leather dress and perfect cat eye makeup. But she’s much more than just a pretty face. Ashley’s in The Pistol Annies with Miranda Lambert and Angaleena Presley, and she’s co-written songs for stars like Jason Aldean. 

Jana Kramer dazzled in a sparkly white-arrow printed dress by Jay Godfrey and summer-ready makeup. The actress-turned-singer first rocked the country world with her hit song “Why Ya Wanna” in 2012. 

Brandy Clark may be a GRAMMY-nominated singer, but the girl knows a few things about fresh-faced beauty, too. She looked darling at the 50th ACM Awards with rosy cheeks and peachy eye makeup. 

Jessie James Decker radiated on the ACM red carpet in her white gown, but that’s probably because she had the best accessory—an adorable baby bump. The “Clint Eastwood” singer kept things simple and beautiful with natural makeup and a low-key ponytail.

Racheal Lynn Woodward, better known as RaeLynn, was inspired to become a singer after listening to Miranda Lambert’s “Me And Charlie Talking.” The 20-year-old has come a long way since her start, complete with a grown-up beauty look and a hit single called “God Made Girls.”

Danielle Bradbery may only be 18 years old, but this Texas native is already doing big things. With one album and a tour with Hunter Hayes under her belt, this beauty is just getting started. 

Cam might not be the most well-known artist but, trust us, she will be. This sunny-eyed songstress has written for Miley Cyrus and is working with GRAMMY-winning producer Jeff Bhasker (Rolling Stones, Taylor Swift) on her own material.

Kelsea Ballerini might be a relative newcomer, but she looked like she’s walked the red carpet hundreds of times before at the ACMs. Her fresh-faced makeup paired with her stunning asymmetrical dress made for one of the prettiest looks of the night.

Kacey Musgraves dazzled in her pale pink dress and loose fishtail braid. Plus, the “Merry Round Go 'Round” singer's classic makeup was the perfect touch on an already flawless appearance. 

Cassadee Pope is one of the hottest up-and-coming country artists of the moment, but did you know she was once in a pop-punk band? (They were called Hey Monday, for anyone playing along at home.) She has since traded in the heavy eyeliner for a more elegant red carpet look, and we absolutely love it!

Jamie Lynn Spears has accomplished a lot in the past 24 years—she’s a talented singer, actress, mother, and wife—but after her entrance at the 50th ACM Awards, she should add beauty icon to the top of her résumé!

Madison Marlow and Taylor Dye (also known as Maddie & Tae) were radiant on the red carpet. With tousled hair and peachy, spring-ready makeup, the “Fly” duo looked positively impeccable.

Who knew that 2 Broke Girls star Beth Behrs could sing? The actress marked her spot in country-music history when she and Brett Eldredge sang a sweet rendition of Glen Campbell's "Gentle On My Mind" before handing out the Single Record of the Year award. ("Gentle On My Mind" was the first track to win, 50 years ago.)
