Thomas says hosting CMA Fest for the second time has gone smoother.

"I thought this year I have been more of a smoother reader, more energy. Started to learn how to host something I guess. And Kelsea has done some hosting gigs too, so I kind of feel like us together kind of made for a really great combination."

Kelsea is excited about hosting CMA Fest with her friend, Thomas.

"I feel like we're the same person, he's just a boy. And so we became such good friends and just bonded over so much. And it's really nice just to be able to co-host with someone you're comfortable with. You get to have this synergy together that's just kind of effortless."

CMA Fest 2017 airs tonight at 8 p.m.[ET] on ABC.
