Maren Morris and Gabby Barrett, who were scheduled to perform at the CMT Music Awards on Wednesday, pulled out of their commitment at the last minute.

“Due to a scheduling conflict, I will not be performing at the CMT Music Awards on Wednesday,” Morris wrote on her Instagram Story.

Canadian star JP Saxe replaced her, and was joined on stage by Ingrid Andress.

Barrett said she would not be able to perform on the CMT Music Awards due to “personal circumstances.”

“I’ll be rooting for you guys and all of the incredibly talented nominees and performers! So appreciate all of your support and will see yall on the road this summer,” she added on Instagram.

Barrett’s post was accompanied by a photo from her performance at last year’s CMT Awards. She was replaced by Lindsay Ell.

Both the country artists were nominated for this year’s CMT female video of the year award.
