Well, here's good news on the concert front: Carrie Underwood is confirmed for Twin Cities Summer Jam for 2021.

The country superstar was set for TC Summer Jam this July at Canterbury Park in Shakopee along with Zac Brown Band and Pitbull as headliners of the three-day multi-genre outdoor fest.

But organizers called off this year's second annual event because of the coronavirus pandemic. The decision came after Zac Brown Band announced cancellation of its tour due to the COVID-19 outbreak.

TC Summer Jam is slated for July 22-24, 2021, with Underwood appearing on July 23. No other performers have been announced.

By the by, Underwood appeared on Sunday's "ACM Presents: Our Country" special, singing "Drinking Alone" on her couch, with a glass of red wine by her side.

Ticketholders for TC Summer Jam 2020 should have been contacted about their options. If not, email tickets@tcsummerjam.com.

Last year's inaugural TC Summer Jam featured Rascal Flatts, Aerosmith and Tim McGraw.
