The Academy of Country Music Awards broadcasted live Wednesday night, uniting the greatest names in down home music.
Keith Urban facilitated the occasion from the Grand Ole Opry House to an unfilled crowd in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic, yet the show was vivacious.
Among the entertainers were Taylor Swift, Carrie Underwood, Luke Bryan, Eric Church, Luke Combs and Tim McGraw.
Quick took the show’s phase without precedent for a long time to perform “Betty” off her new album, “Folklore.”
At the point when it went to the large classes, Old Dominion won gathering of the year and Luke Combs won collection of the year for “What You See Is What You Get.”
Performer of the year, the top ACM prize, was introduced last and created an amazement. Metropolitan appeared to be stunned when he opened the envelope to report that the current year’s victor wound up in a tie between Carrie Underwood and Thomas Rhett. Regardless of sharing the honor, the two stars appeared to be similarly excited during their acknowledgment addresses.
Underwood recently won the honor in 2009 and 2010.
