"I want to say thank you to everybody that listened to the record, everybody that listens to music—country music fans," he said while accepting Album of the Year for Starting Over.

"It's always an honor to receive the album award. We work really hard to make albums—we believe in albums, and we like what that is."

One of the night's most memorable moments was Carly Pearce's emotional reaction to winning Female Vocalist of the Year.
