As a two-time CMA Male Vocalist of the Year and Song of the Year winner (“God Bless The U.S.A.), Lee will also be available to chat about the 51st CMA Awards on November 8.

His stand-out hit "God Bless the U.S.A." has been in the top five on the country singles charts three times (1991, 2001 and 2003), giving it the distinction of being the only song in any genre of music to achieve that feat.
