It was a big night for first-time nominee Lainey Wilson and “Six Feet Apart” singer Luke Combs at the 56th Annual CMA Awards at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee, on Wednesday, November 9.

The ceremony, hosted by Peyton Manning and Luke Bryan, aired live on ABC, as well as streaming services like Hulu and YouTube TV, and saw the biggest stars come out to celebrate the best in country music. This included Miranda Lambert, Reba McEntire, and Carrie Underwood, who kicked off the night with a moving tribute to the late Loretta Lynn.

It was a successful evening for Combs, who took the much-coveted Entertainer of the Year award for the second year running. The North Carolina native also took home the award for Album of the Year.

Meanwhile, Wilson, who had the most nominations heading into the ceremony, ended the night with major wins, including New Artist of the Year and Female Vocalist of the Year.

Taking to the stage to accept one of her two awards, an emotional Wilson said, “I know I’m new to a lot of folks, but I won’t let y’all all down. I promise you.”

The night also saw its share of memorable performances, including a tribute to Jerry Lee Lewis from Elle King and The Black Keys. Other performers included Kelly Clarkson, who dueted with Kelsea Ballerini and Carly Pearce, and Bryan, who took a break from his hosting duties to sing for the crowd. Wilson and Dierks Bentley also took to the stage to honor Alan Jackson, the recipient of the Willie Nelson Lifetime Achievement Award.
