The CMA Music Fest turned into a downhome love fest this week, as Sara Evans took the stage at Rocketown in Nashville for her annual meet and greet party.

Fans entered a "Sara-oke Contest," submitting videos singing Evans' most popular songs. Evans treated fans to her new hit, "Perfect," along with pervious anthems such as "Born to Fly." According to TheBoot.com, Evans told the crowd, "I'm so honored and blessed to have such an amazing fan club."

Husband Jay Barker and Evans' sister, Ashley Simpson, and brother-in-law, Zach Simpson, also were on hand for the activities, which included a contest for fans to have their name used as a character in one of Evans' future novels, as three more are in the works with publisher Thomas Nelson. The Sara-oke Contest winner was announced and got to perform the song live, with encouragement from Evans.

Evans went onto entertain the crowd. "I feel like the luckiest girl in the world," Evans said onstage. "This is all I ever wanted to do."
