    Awards season is slowly rolling in the country music world with the Academy of Country Music (ACM) Awards set for May 16 and the CMT Awards airing on April 7.

    CMT officially announced their nominees for the award ceremony with Jelly Roll, Megan Moroney, Cody Johnson and Lainey Wilson leading the way with the most nominations.

    Kelsea Ballerini is returning as the show’s host for the fourth year in a row. Airing at 8 p.m. ET on CBS live from the Moody Center in Austin, Texas, the show will simultaneously stream live on Paramount+.

    Y’all I’ve been nominated for 3 CMT awards! It’s an honor to be nominated— you can vote now through April 1st. You get 10 votes per category per day so spread the love. Vote here>>> https://t.co/y1CxOzLVUs pic.twitter.com/GLmQfgsxgk

    — Jelly Roll (@JellyRoll615) March 13, 2024

    Fan voting is already open at vote.cmt.com and will run until April 1. However, voting for Video of the Year will run until the end of the live show on April 7.

    While Jelly Roll, Cody Johnson, Lainey Wilson, Megan Moroney and Kelsea Ballerini lead the way with three nominations each, fan-favorites, Koe Wetzel, Morgan Wallen, Zach Bryan and Tyler Childers also received nominations. For Childers, Wetzel and Bryan, these are their first CMT Award nominations to date. In fact, 14 artists received their first nominations this year.

    Zach Bryan earned his first-ever nominations for Male Video of the Year and Breakthrough Male Video of the Year for “Nine Ball” and “Oklahoma Smokeshow” respectively.

    Tyler Childers, on the other hand, doubled-dipped, having the highly controversial video for “In Your Love” nominated for both Male Video of the Year and Breakthrough Male Video of the Year.

    Finally, Koe Wetzel earned his first nomination for his feature on Ella Langley’s “That’s Why We Fight,” which is nominated for Collaborative Video of the Year.

    Though there are a lot of your traditional mainstream Nashville country stars present in this year’s CMT Awards, the fact that independent and alternative country acts like Bryan, Childers and Wetzel is extremely encouraging for fans of the indie scene.
