In just two hours at 9 p.m. ET, the documentary ‘Jimmy Carter, Rock and Roll President’ will premiere on CNN.

Dear Good, In just two hours at 9 p.m. ET, the documentary ‘Jimmy Carter, Rock and Roll President’ will premiere on CNN.

It combines interviews with the former President and contributors and performances from the likes of Willie Nelson, Bono, Bob Dylan, Garth Brooks, Trisha Yearwood, Jimmy Buffett, Roseanne Cash, Chuck Leavell, Paul Simon, Aretha Franklin, Dizzy Gillespie, and many others.
