2024 CMA Awards full performers list revealed: From Luke Combs to Post Malone, here's your guide
The 58th Annual Country Music Association (CMA) Awards is set for Wednesday, November 20, in Nashville, with hosts Luke Bryan, Lainey Wilson, and Peyton Manning. Alongside the awards, the evening promises a series of fascinating performances. Keep an eye out as more artists are announced for this year’s show. The first CMA Awards took place in 1967 as a private banquet. A year later, it became a televised event, making it the longest-running annual music awards program on network TV. Since 2006, ABC has broadcast the awards, along with other CMA programs like 'CMA Fest' and 'CMA Country Christmas.'
Morgan Wallen leads the nominations, as announced on September 9, with seven nods, including his third consecutive nomination for Entertainer of the Year. Following closely, Chris Stapleton and Cody Johnson each received five nominations, while Post Malone, making a splash with his recent foray into country music, earned four. Lainey Wilson also received four nominations. Notably, Beyoncé’s recent exploration into the country genre was overlooked, with no nominations. On that note, here's a full list of all the performers who will be bringing their skills on stage for the award ceremony this year.
