Her album Whirlwind earned Album of the Year, and she later claimed the night’s top prize, Entertainer of the Year, reinforcing her status as one of country music’s biggest forces.
Ella Langley shared one of the evening’s most memorable moments when she and Riley Green won Song and Single of the Year for their viral hit You Look Like You Love Me.
Accepting the award, Langley credited fans for the song’s momentum, saying, “I feel like this is a song that just keeps on giving because fans keep on listening to it.”
A new generation made its mark as Zach Top secured New Artist of the Year, topping a strong field that included Shaboozey, Langley, Tucker Wetmore, and Stephen Wilson Jr.
The night also saw a major shake-up in group categories. The Red Clay Strays ended Old Dominion’s seven-year run by winning Vocal Group of the Year, signaling a fresh chapter in the genre’s landscape.
