Shaboozey and Zach Top Score Second New Artist of the Year Nominations at CMA Awards

Ella Langley, Tucker Wetmore, and Stephen Wilson Jr. will also compete for the coveted prize this year

The annual ceremony was light on star power and delightful misbehavior, and heavy on the snooze factor

The trio also collaborated with 5 Seconds of Summer during their anniversary tour stop at the Intuit Dome

The singer took home the trophy for “Brighter Days Ahead” longform video

The 20-year-old musician continued his breakout year with a medley featuring “Back to Friends” and “12 to 12”
