The night was filled with performances from some of the top country artists in the industry, including Blake Shelton, Miranda Lambert, and Chris Stapleton. One of the standout moments was when Dan + Shay performed their hit single “I Should Probably Go to Bed,” which won them the award for Duo of the Year.
Other winners included Jason Aldean for Entertainer of the Year, Carly Pearce for Female Artist of the Year, and Kane Brown for Video of the Year for “Worship You.”
One of the most memorable moments of the night came when Luke Combs accepted the award for Album of the Year for his project, “What You See Ain’t Always What You Get.” He thanked his wife and his team, and dedicated the award to his late grandfather, who he said was a big fan of country music.
In addition to the awards, there were also some emotional moments throughout the night. One of the most touching came when Reba McEntire paid tribute to the late George Strait, a country music icon who passed away earlier this year. She sang a moving rendition of Strait’s hit song, “You Look So Good in Love,” and the audience gave her a standing ovation.
