Shannon Smith of Three Bridges said, "It was an absolute honor to share the stage with Jimmy Fortune! He is an amazing performer with some of the most pure tenor vocals I've ever heard, and he is an awesome guitar player as well. More importantly, his love for the Lord is so genuine and contagious. I'm honored to call Jimmy my friend."

Three Bridges’ Elliott McCoy also commented, “We had a blast performing at this festival and sharing the stage with one of Country music’s greatest performers! Being a featured performer alongside Jimmy Fortune was a wonderful experience for Three Bridges.”

Each artist performed for over an hour before sharing the stage together. Three Bridges and Jimmy performed several of Jimmy’s well-known songs together, such as “Elizabeth,” “More Than Just a Name On the Wall,” and “How Great Thou Art.”
