Another music artist is coming to the fictional city of Genoa.
Trace Adkins, country music singer-songwriter, will be making a guest appearance on
The Young and the Restless on Friday, May 2.
Though Adkins has appeared on a number of television shows, this will be his first time to appear on a soap opera. On his
Young and the Restless stint, the 46-year-old singer will be featured in a storyline in which he will help Nick Newman (
Joshua Morrow) surprise his wife Phyllis (
Michelle Stafford) for their first anniversary. Adkins will be singing his latest number 1 single “You're Gonna Miss This,” which has been on top of the charts for three weeks now.

I can't wait.
Adkins made his music debut in 1996 with the album "Dreamin' Out Loud," which was released on Capitol Records Nashville. Shortly after, he released six more studio albums, as well as two Greatest Hits compilations. He charted more than 20 singles in the Billboard country music charts, including the number 1 hits "(This Ain't) No Thinkin' Thing," "Ladies Love Country Boys," and "You're Gonna Miss This", which peaked in 1996, 2007, and 2008 respectively.
Most recently, Adkins became a contestant on NBC's
The Celebrity Apprentice, in which he played for his selected charity, the Allergy and Anaphylaxis Network, which provides education, advocacy and research support to families dealing with the daily nightmare of serious and life-threatening food allergies. He made it to the finale as one of the two finalists. Unfortunately,
Donald Trump ultimately "hired" Adkins' rival, tabloid editor
Piers Morgan, who had his own charity.
Additionally, Adkins also served as a panelist on game shows like
Hollywood Squares and
Pyramid. He also wrote an autobiography entitled
A Personal Stand: Observations and Opinions from a Free-Thinking Roughneck, which was released in late 2007.
Meanwhile,
The Young and the Restless isn't Adkins' only upcoming TV gig. He will also appear on E! Network's
Chelsea Lately on May 5 and
The Tonight Show with Jay Leno on May 8.
