In 2023, Lainey Wilson took home five trophies, including the coveted Entertainer of the Year. It was the first time a female earned that title since Taylor Swift won it in 2011. Also, Nashville native Jelly Roll won five awards, including Male Vocalist and New Artist of the Year.
Wilson topped 2023's nomination list with nine, while first-time nominee Jelly Roll ran the table with as many award wins as nominations.
Luke Combs and HARDY (four nominations), plus Davis, Ashley McBryde, producer/mix engineer Joey Moi, songwriter/producer Jordan Schmidt, Chris Stapleton, Wallen and musician/producer Derek Wells (three nominations) also topped the list of most-nominated artists.
The night's pinnacle prize, Entertainer of the Year, saw Combs, Stapleton, Wallen and Wilson in competition against Carrie Underwood.
