Five winners shared the honor of being the evening’s big honorees — Luke Combs, Maren Morris, Thomas Rhett, Old Dominion and Tenille Townes, each of whom won two awards.
Combs took home Male Artist of the Year and Album of the Year for his “What You See Is What You Get.” Rhett meanwhile tied with Carrie Underwood for Entertainer of the Year and also took home Video of the Year for “Remember You Young.”
Morris won Female Artist of the Year and also shared Musical Event of the Year on Miranda Lambert’s track “Fooled Around and Fell in Love.” Townes also shared that Musical Event of the Year prize while nabbing New Female Artist of the Year, while the group Old Dominion won for Group of the Year and Song of the year for the ironically titled “One Man Band.”
