Hey there, music lovers! The moment we’ve all been waiting for has finally arrived — the 2019 CMA Awards nominees are officially out, and let me tell you, they did not disappoint! Whether you’re a fan of country legends or up-and-coming artists, this year’s list has something for everyone. It’s shaping up to be one of the most exciting nights in country music history.
Let’s talk about what’s going down. This year, Carrie Underwood, who’s been nominated for three awards, is set to take the stage as a host alongside two of country music’s biggest icons, Reba McEntire and Dolly Parton. That’s right, folks — three powerhouse women leading the show! It’s been more than a decade since Carrie last hosted without Brad Paisley by her side, so this is a big deal. Get ready for some serious chemistry and unforgettable performances!
Now, here’s the thing: while some of our favorite country legends like Garth Brooks, Keith Urban, Miranda Lambert, and Blake Shelton have scored multiple nominations, it’s the rising star, Maren Morris, who’s really shining this year. With six nominations under her belt, she’s clearly making her mark on the industry. This could be her year to truly break out and cement her place among the greats. Let’s give it up for Maren!
