🎤🏆🎸 2023 ACM Awards: Here’s the Full List of Winners!
The 2023 ACM Awards were broadcasted live from Texas on Thursday on Prime Video. The annual country music show, which was aired Thursday night on Prime Video from the Ford Center at The Star in Frisco, Texas, and hosted by Dolly Parton and Garth Brooks, kicked off on Wednesday with a series of early victories.
Zach Bryan and Hailey Whitters were the first to claim a trophy, with Bryan winning new male artist of the year and Whitters winning new female artist of the year on Wednesday. Meanwhile, Ashley Gorley, who co-wrote hits like “Sand in My Boots” for Morgan Wallen and “You Should Probably Leave” for Chris Stapleton, won songwriter of the year.
Whitters expressed her surprise and delight on Instagram, tagging the show and writing “WHAT 😭” as the caption on a post shortly after receiving her award. Bryan, on the other hand, thanked the Academy of Country Music in an Instagram Story.
HARDY started the night as the most-nominated artist, with seven nods, including song of the year and artist-songwriter of the year. He shared three of his nominations with Lainey Wilson, who was nominated for six awards.
Following them are Kane Brown, Luke Combs, Miranda Lambert, and Cole Swindell, who will each compete for five trophies. Lambert, who won the coveted Triple Crown Award last year, is up for female artist of the year for a record-breaking 17th time. This year’s nomination pushes her past Reba McEntire’s 16 nods in the category.
If either Combs or Stapleton win entertainer of the year, they too will be Triple Crown winners, which means an artist has won entertainer of the year, new artist, and artist of the year.
The show is set to be a star-studded event, with performances from Keith Urban, Jason Aldean, HARDY, Brown, Combs, Cody Johnson, Lambert, Jelly Roll, Morgan Wallen, The War and Treaty, Wilson, Bailey Zimmerman, and Parton, who will debut the first single from her upcoming rock album.
