Fifty-Third Annual Country Music Association Awards

La Scène: Where It’s At

The CMAs were held on November 13, 2019, at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville. The CMA Awards recognize some of the best country music released throughout each year. Carrie Underwood hosted the event with special guest hosts Reba McEntire and Dolly Parton, celebrating legendary women in country music. For the first time in history, women were nominated in every category (except Male Vocalist of the Year, awarded to Luke Combs). Kacey Musgraves was presented with the International Artist Achievement Award, Female Vocalist of the Year, and Music Video of the Year, while Maren Morris held six nominations and won Album of the Year for Girl.
