Here’s what you can expect at The 57th annual CMA Awards. Tetris KellyLuke Bryan, Jelly Roll, Dan + Shay and Paula Abdul? The 2023 Country Music Awards are in Nashville tonight, Nov. 8.

Lainey Wilson and HARDY are already winners heading into tonight’s (Nov. 8) 2023 CMA Awards.
This morning, the Country Music Association revealed that HARDY and Wilson’s dramatic murder ballad, “Wait in the Truck,” picked up trophies for musical event of the year and music video of the year.

“Wait in the Truck” was produced by HARDY, Joey Moi, Jordan Schmidt and Derek Wells, while Justin Clough directed the music video.

These mark HARDY’s first CMA Awards wins, while Wilson took home new artist of the year and female vocalist of the year during last year’s CMAs. Part of the song’s strength is the charismatic vocal interplay between the two singers, as well as the message tackling domestic abuse.

“You rarely hear songs like this that bring light to heavy situations that people are really scared to talk about,” Wilson previously told Billboard of “Wait in the Truck.” “I feel, in my heart, that our job is to sing about the things that people are afraid to talk about. It’s a song that definitely starts a conversation.”

Co-producer Moi also previously noted, “When somebody’s had the guts to write something completely alternative and also make it sound completely mainstream at the same time, it’s a unicorn-type song.”

Heading into this year’s ceremony, Wilson leads the nominees with nine total nominations (including entertainer of the year and female vocalist of the year), while HARDY picked up four nods. “Wait in the Truck” is also up for both single of the year and song of the year.

The 57th annual CMA Awards will air tonight on ABC from Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena, beginning at 8 p.m. ET. Wilson and HARDY are both slated as performers, as well as Kelsea Ballerini, Luke Bryan, Kenny Chesney, Luke Combs, Dan+Shay, Jordan Davis, Alan Jackson, Jelly Roll, K. Michelle, Little Big Town and more.

The 57th Annual CMA Awards is a production of the Country Music Association. Robert Deaton is the executive producer, Alan Carter is the director and Jon Macks is the head writer.  

Leading up to this year’s CMA Awards in Nashville, Dolly Parton takes ABC News’ Robin Roberts behind the scenes of her new album, Rock Star.
The hourlong ABC News special Dolly Parton – From Rhinestones to Rock & Roll will air Tuesday from 10-11 p.m. ET. Together, Parton and Roberts discuss Dolly’s collaborations with numerous rock artists on her new album, including Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Pat Benatar, Peter Frampton, John Fogerty and Steven Tyler. Current CMA Awards co-host Luke Bryan will host the special.

They also discuss the stories behind many of Parton’s iconic fashion looks over the years. Those fashions and stories make up Parton’s newly released book Behind the Seams: My Life in Rhinestones. The book was also celebrated during the recent grand-opening celebration of Parton’s fashion exhibit at Lipscomb University in Nashville.

The trailer for the hourlong special features a plethora of artists discussing what they love about the 77-year-old member of both the Country Music and Rock & Roll Halls of Fame. The special features appearances from Jelly Roll, Carly Pearce, Keith Urban, Cody Johnson, Miranda Lambert, Sting, Lainey Wilson, Darius Rucker, Tim McGraw, Jordan Davis and Luke Combs.

“Ask me what I love about Dolly Parton, and I’ll say everything,” “Need a Favor” singer Jelly Roll says in the special.

Though Parton’s accomplishments, talent and confidence are world-class, she also reveals to Roberts that she has her moments of nervousness too.

“I’m scared sometimes, you know, I’m not made of stone,” Parton says at one moment in the preview clip.

The upcoming CMA Awards, hosted by Bryan and Peyton Manning, will air live on ABC from Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena on Nov. 8. Leading this year’s nominees are Lainey Wilson with nine nominations (including her first entertainer of the year nod) and first-time nominee Jelly Roll, with five nominations.

You may be aware that Brooks & Dunn and Vince Gill are tied for the most CMA Awards wins with 18 each. But Brooks & Dunn won most of their awards, and Gill won all of his, in the last century. So who leads for the most awards won in this century? We have prepared a list of everyone who has won five or more CMA Awards since 2000.

The 57th annual CMA Awards are set to air Wednesday, Nov. 8, on ABC. Luke Bryan and Peyton Manning will co-host the show for a second year in a row. It will be held at its usual home, Bridgestone Arena in Nashville.

Lainey Wilson — who won two awards, including new artist of the year, last year — is this year’s top nominee, with nine nods. If she wins just three of them, she’ll join this list of artists who have won five or more CMA Awards in this century.

We’ll get to the list, we promise, but first, to tease you just a bit more, we have four lists of all-time CMA winners: The five acts with the most wins are Brooks & Dunn and Vince Gill (18 each), George Strait (17), Alan Jackson (16) and Chris Stapleton (15).

The six female solo artists with the most wins are Miranda Lambert (14), Dolly Parton and Taylor Swift (nine each), Loretta Lynn (eight), and Alison Krauss and Carrie Underwood (seven each).

The five groups with the most wins are The Chicks (10), Alabama and The Statler Brothers (nine each), Little Big Town (eight) and Rascal Flatts (seven).

The five duos with the most wins are Brooks & Dunn (18), The Judds (nine), Brothers Osborne (six), Sugarland (five) and Florida Georgia Line (four).

OK, you’ve waited long enough. Here’s an updated list of everyone who has won five or more CMA Awards in this century.
