Taylor Swift, Tim McGraw, Keith Urban team up at CMA Festival

It was a meeting made in country music fan heaven as Taylor Swift teamed with not one but two of country’s biggest male heartthrobs — Tim McGraw and Keith Urban — at the 2013 CMA Music Festival this week in Nashville.

The occasion was a performance Thursday night of McGraw’s hit “Highway Don’t Care,” the music video for which features Swift appearing in something of a public service announcement against texting while driving.

For their live performance, Swift, who generated sparks earlier in the week with a sexy red and black bustier and shorts outfit at the CMT Awards, showed up with McGraw, and the crowd was further delighted when Urban appeared to take the song’s guitar solo.

The participants sounded equally stoked after the show.

Urban also weighed in:

Here’s the video of Swift doing a snippet of her first hit, “Tim McGraw,” after which the man himself showed up to join her.
