The Surpassingtalent list for CMT's Nov. 15-premiering "Smashing Glass" program honoring the musical legacies of Tanya Tucker and Patti Labelle may be as -- or more -- genre and expectation-defying than the legendary artists being honored.
The program will premiere on the 15th at 9 p.m. ET / 8 p.m. CT.
Performances and presentations from newly-minted Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Sheryl Crow, tennis icon Billie Jean King, Chris Janson, Clint Black, Fancy Hagood, Ledisi and The War & Treaty, plus moments honoring recently passed on performers Aretha Franklin, Sinead O’Connor and Tina Turner performed by Amber Riley, Lucie Silvas and Mickey Guyton will also be featured.
