There’s one surprising name missing from the Country Music Association Awards list of 2024 nominees: Beyoncé. The artist’s country and Americana album “Cowboy Carter” did not receive any nominations from the awards organization.
Instead, the most nominated artist of the 2024 CMA Awards is Morgan Wallen, who is nominated for major honors including Entertainer of the Year, Single of the Year and Song of the Year. As for CMA Entertainer of the Year — the awards show’s biggest honor — that battle will be taking place this year between Luke Combs, Jelly Roll, Chris Stapleton, Morgan Wallen and Lainey Wilson.
Cody Johnson and Chris Stapleton tied for the second most-nominated artists with five nods apiece. They were then followed by Post Malone and Lainey Wilson, who each secured four nominations, as well as Louis Bell, Luke Combs, Charlie Handsome, Hoskins, Jelly Roll, Megan Moroney and Kacey Musgraves, who each secured three nominations.
The CMA Awards also included 30 first-time nominees, including Noah Kahan and Post Malone. The other awards newbies are Andrew Baylis, Louis Bell, Brock Berryhill, Tom Bukovac, Will Bundy, Sean Cook, Benjy Davis, Shawn Everett, Riley Green, Kevin “Thrasher” Gruft, Kat Higgins, Hoskins, Jeff Johnson, Ella Langley, 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.
Dubbed “Country’s Biggest Night,” the 58th Annual CMA Awards will broadcast live from Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena on Nov. 20 starting at 8 p.m. ET. It will be available to watch live on ABC and the next day on Hulu.
The nominees were selected by a group of eligible voting members comprised of professionals within the country music industry. Winners will be determined through a final round of voting by CMA members. Balloting is determined by Deloitte. The 58th Annual CMA Awards is a production of the Country Music Association. Robert Deaton serves as the executive producer of the awards show with Alan Carter as director and Jon Macks as head writer.
