The 58th annual Academy of Country Music Awards, hosted by Dolly Parton and Garth Brooks, streamed live on May 11 from the Ford Center at the Star in Frisco, Texas on Prime Video.

Hardy led with eight nominations, winning Artist-Songwriter of the Year as well as Visual media and Music Event of the Year for his collaboration with Lainey Wilson, “Wait in the Truck.”

Wilson was nominated for six, winning Female Artist and Album of the Year for Bell Bottom Country, along with her shared awards with Hardy. Morgan Wallen won Male Artist of the Year, but could not attend the awards show due to being on vocal rest.

Kane Brown, Luke Combs, Miranda Lambert, and Cole Swindell were each nominated for five nominations. Swindell won the first award on the evening, Song of the Year for “She Had Me at Heads Carolina,” and repeated with the song for Single of the Year, as well.

Lambert, the most-awarded artist in ACM history, received her record-breaking 17th Female Artist of the Year nomination (surpassing Reba McEntire’s 16), as well as four other nominations. She was up against Jason Aldean, Kane Brown, Luke Combs, Chris Stapleton, Carrie Underwood, and Morgan Wallen for Entertainer of the Year, with Stapleton taking home the top honor.
