ABC's 9-1-1: Nashville has reeled in its first guest star, Country singer Kane Brown. The Miles on It singer has filmed a cameo appearance in the Music City on Thursday, and reportedly, Brown's role will be during a concert performance in the premiere, where:
"He proves heroic in a major storyline.''
Starring Chris O’Donnell, Jessica Capshaw, LeAnn Rimes, Hailey Kilgore, Kimberly Williams-Paisley, Michael Provost, Juani Feliz, and Hunter McVey in the lead roles, 9-1-1: Nashville is the latest installment in Ryan Murphy's 9-1-1 universe, which follows the lives of first responders.
The spin-off series will debut on ABC on Thursday, October 9, at 9 p.m. and will be available to stream on Hulu the following day.
Hours before Kane Brown's cameo news, the singer took to his Instagram stories and teased this to his followers:
"What's up, guys? So I have a little TV shoot I'm doing this morning... I can't tell y'all what I'm doing, but it's gonna be sick, and I'm excited!"

What Ifs singer Kane Brown to guest star in 9-1-1: Nashville premiere
9-1-1: Nashville marks the second spin-off in the 9-1-1 universe, after the Texas-based series 9-1-1: Lone Star, which was canceled after a five-season run. The official synopsis for the show reads as follows:
"A high-octane procedural about our heroic first responders, as well as their family saga of power and glamour set in one of America’s most diverse and dynamic cities."
This is certainly not the first time that Country singer Kane Brown is appearing on the small screen, as the actor made his acting debut in 2023 in Fire Country Season 1. In addition to his many TV performances, the singer has also mentored the up-and-coming talents on music TV reality shows like The Voice and American Idol. Brown has also hosted the CMT Awards three times on television.
Brown's cameo appearance suggests that Nashville will continue to expand on the flagship series' premise, and Kane Brown's character will be caught in one of the accidents in the 9-1-1: Nashville premiere, but he will likely aid the team and save the day.
In addition to the spin-off series, 9-1-1 will also return with its Season 9 on ABC on October 9, 2025, with the main cast, including Angela Bassett, Oliver Stark, Aisha Hinds, Kenneth Choi, and Ryan Guzman.
