Another year empty handed after the CMA Awards for Morgan Wallen. Tonight, host Lainey Wilson took home the coveted Entertainer of the Year award trophy, after being up against a stacked group in Cody Johnson, Chris Stapleton, Luke Combs, and of course, Morgan Wallen. View this post on Instagram We knew going into it that Morgan was highly unlikely to attend, because he won Entertainer of the Year last year and didn’t show up, and he never even really addressed […]

I mean, it could just be because she’s talented? I’ll admit, I thought Morgan Wallen absolutely deserved to win Entertainer of the Year tonight at the CMA Awards. Nobody is bigger or has done more for country music over the past year. But it’s hard to find anything bad to say about Lainey Wilson winning it either. Lainey took home her second Entertainer of the Year award tonight, after first winning the night’s top prize back in 2023. And naturally, […]

IT’S ABOUT DAMN TIME. Last year, the Red Clay Strays were nominated for their first-ever CMA Award in the Vocal Group of the Year category. Some may have considered the fact that they were even nominated as a win, and there might have been a small part of the band that thought that way, too. They walked away empty-handed at the 2024 CMAs, but the band from Mobile, Alabama, was up for the very same award this year. And it […]

I’ve got a feeling that a lot of people are being introduced to Stephen Wilson Jr. tonight at the 2025 CMA Awards… and it’s a beautiful thing. The “Holler from the Holler” singer has lived a couple of different lives in his lifetime. Hailing from Southern Indiana, Wilson Jr. has certainly made waves in country music over the past couple of years. Wilson Jr. first introduced himself with his EP Bon Aqua in 2023, and then really established himself with his masterful Son […]

Sorry, ladies… I really hate to be the messenger here, as hearts all over the world are breaking with news that Riley Green has a date for the CMA Awards, and it’s not his mom or one of his sisters… it’s influencer Bryana Ferringer. I’m sure you know that Riley is a fan-favorite among the ladies for obvious reasons, and I’ve recently heard him say that he is single, but it appears as though he might actually have a girlfriend, as […]

Extending their record. The fact that Brooks & Dunn are still winning CMA Awards gives me some hope for the current state of country music… although that hope could be a lot higher if Old Dominion didn’t win Group of the Year last year and it went to the Red Clay Strays… which could finally happen later tonight. I digress… Brooks & Dunn have been in the game for 34 years and remain a prominent name despite all the new […]
