The annual country music awards show launched last year, and several new categories have been added to the event this time around: female song, male song, group / duo song, cover song, new artist song and storyteller song. At the inaugural 2023 ceremony, Jelly Roll emerged as the night's top winner with four awards, followed by Wallen with three. The late Toby Keith was honored with the country icon award just a few months before his death at age 62 in February, while Wynonna Judd took home the special country champion award.
