Morgan Wallen tops the list of the 58th Annual CMA Awards nominees with seven nominations, followed by Chris Stapleton and Cody Johnson with five each. Additional artists with multiple nominations include Post Malone (a first-time nominee), Lainey Wilson, Luke Combs, and Kacey Musgraves.
Wallen’s nominated in the Entertainer of the Year, Single of the Year (“I Had Some Help”), Song of the Year (“I Had Some Help”), Male Vocalist of the Year, Musical Event of the Year (“I Had Some Help”), Musical Event of the Year (“Man Made A Bar”), and Music Video of the Year (“I Had Some Help”) categories.
Andrew Baylis, Louis Bell, Brock Berryhill, Tom Bukovac, Will Bundy, and Sean Cook made the CMA Awards nominee list for the first time. Additional first-timers include Benjy Davis, Shawn Everett, Riley Green, Kevin “Thrasher” Gruft, Kat Higgins, Hoskins, Jeff Johnson, Noah Kahan, Ella Langley, and Ryan Larkins.
Raul Lopez, Josh Phillips, Nevin Sastry, Shaboozey, Ernest Keith Smith, Nate Smith, Konrad Snyder, Mitchell Tenpenny, The Red Clay Strays, Zach Top, Chris Villa, Chandler Paul Walters, and Bailey Zimmerman also earned their first nominations.
Notably, the CMA Awards completely ignored Beyonce, although her Cowboy Carter album held the top spot on Billboard’s Country Albums chart for four weeks. Her single “Texas Hold ‘Em” was the #1 song on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart for 10 weeks.
The 2024 CMA Awards will air live on November 20, 2024 at 8pm ET/PT (tape-delayed on the West Coast) on ABC. Alan Carter is directing, Jon Macks is the head writer, and Robert Deaton executive produces.
