Luke Bryan won Entertainer of the Year at Sunday’s Academy of Country Music Awards — though the singer was unable to attend the live, in-person Nashville ceremony due to a positive COVID-19 test last week.
Maren Morris also took home two prizes at the event, including Female Artist of the Year and Song of the Year for her hit “The Bones.”
Carly Pearce and Lee Brice won two awards for their duet “I Hope You’re Happy Now,” which was named Single of the Year and Music Event of the Year.
Keith Urban and Mickey Guyton co-hosted the ceremony, which aired on CBS.
