These women are kicking down doors, fighting for equal representation and broadening the path for the female country acts who come after them.

Country legend Willie Nelson's Outlaw Music Festival will return to Pine Knob in Clarkston on September 15, along with Bob Dylan and John Mellencamp.

He'll be joined by John Fogerty, Margo Price, Flatland Calvary and more incredible artists.

Eddie Veder, Maren Morris, Ashley McBryde and Billy Strings are just a few of the acts set to perform.

Even Carrie Underwood seemed in awe.

The show, hosted by Carly Pearce, now includes more than a dozen acts, who will help honor the night's award recipients.

With help from guest vocalists Brittney Spencer and Madeline Edwards, the Highwomen recreated one of the tracks on Lady Gaga's 'Born This Way' album.
