LOS ANGELES -- The Country Music Association has announced its nominees for the 57th annual CMA Awards. For the second year in a row, Lainey Wilson is leading the charge.

FULL LIST: Take a look at the winners of the 20232 CMA Awards

With these nominations, Wilson makes history, becoming the only artist to top the nominations list in her first two appearances on the final ballot. Last year, Wilson earned six CMA nods.

It's been a whirlwind couple of years for the artist, who told On The Red Carpet back in June, "These are the moments that I've been praying for and hoping for for years."

"There was a time in my career I didn't think I'd have a thousand people would come watch me sing," Jelly Roll said in June at CMA Fest.

The singer, who's also had an incredible year, earned five CMA nominations including Single of the Year, Male Vocalist of the Year and New Artist of the Year.

Luke Combs and HARDY have four nominations each.

Ashley McBryde, Jordan Davis, Chris Stapleton and Morgan Wallen each have three nominations.

Luke Bryan and Peyton Manning return as hosts of the CMA Awards, taking place in Nashville November 8, airing on ABC.

On The Red Carpet will be there to welcome this year's nominees, presenters and performers. Follow @OnTheRedCarpet on social media for updates.
