MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. (WPDE) — Wow. Sign me up and pour me a drink! Carolina Country Music Fest has announced a rockstar headliner!
Please welcome Post Malone to the CCMF 2026 stage!
Dallas, Texas-native Post Malone is fresh off the release of his debut country album, F-1 Trillion, which debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 and has already produced major hits including “Guy For That” featuring Luke Combs, “Pour Me A Drink” featuring Blake Shelton, and the mega-smash “I Had Some Help” with Morgan Wallen. Upon release, “I Had Some Help” debuted at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, earning “the highest weekly sales and streams since 2020” and holding the top spot for six consecutive weeks.
