To celebrate the legendary women of country music, Carrie Underwood, Reba McEntire and Dolly Parton will host the 2019 CMA Awards on November 13.
The awards will be take place at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, TN at 9pm and while there are no announced plans yet, it is believed that the CMA have something special in mind to recognise the impact female artists have had on country music.
Between the three hosts, there are 124 CMA Award nominations in total, with 22 wins shared between them. Underwood has been hosting the awards with Brad Paisley since 2008, while McEntire (1990, 1991, 1992) and Parton (1988) have also hosted the event before.
Speaking about the decision to make Underwood, McEntire and Parton the hosts of the event, Sarah Trahern – CEO of the CMA – said that it was an honour to be able to have them host and believes that the trio are perfect for what the CMA want to achieve.
“It’s an incredible honour to welcome Carrie, Reba and Dolly to the CMA Awards stage this year,” Trahern said. “In addition to awarding the year’s best and brightest in the genre, the 53rd Annual CMA Awards will celebrate the legacy of women within country music and we couldn’t think of a more dynamic group of women to host the show.”
The nominees for the 2019 CMA Awards will be revealed on August 28 and will be shown on ‘Good Morning America’ as well as via a live stream for worldwide country music fans.
