Below is a full list of special award recipients:

ACM Cliffie Stone ICON Award – Brooks & Dunn and Martina McBride were chosen to receive the Cliffie Stone Icon Award. This award is presented to a country music artist, duo/group or industry leader who throughout their career has advanced the popularity of the genre through their contributions in multiple facets of the industry such as songwriting, recording, production, touring, film, television, literary works, philanthropic contributions and other goodwill efforts.

 Brooks & Dunn dominated country radio for two decades, from 1991’s “Brand New Man” to 2009’s “Cowgirls Don’t Cry.” They landed their first ACM Awards for 1991 Vocal Duo and New Vocal Duet or Group. They claimed the Vocal Duo category 16 times, setting a record that may never be broken. Kix Brooks and Ronnie Dunn shot out of the gate as Brand New Man won the 1992 ACM Award for Album of the Year, while “Boot Scootin’ Boogie” picked up Single Record of the Year. They earned Entertainer of the Year honors for 1995 and 1996, the only duo to ever win the award. They picked up a third Entertainer award and a Music Video of the Year trophy for “Only in America” for 2001 Among their 41 Top 10 hits are signature songs include “My Next Broken Heart,” “My Maria,” ‘Ain’t Nothin’ ‘Bout You” and “Red Dirt Road,” while the stunning “Believe” picked up 2005 ACM Song of the Year. Known as one of country’s most dynamic live acts, Brooks & Dunn is in the midst of a Las Vegas residency with Reba. The duo’s newest project, Reboot, debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s country albums chart this year.

Martina McBride built her magnificent career with an incredible voice and a talent for finding emotional songs that resonated with her audience. 
Beginning with an auspicious debut single titled “The Time Has Come,” McBride has placed more than 50 titles on Billboard’s country airplay chart and earned three consecutive ACM Female Vocalist awards (2001-2003). She enjoyed a career breakthrough in 1993 with “My Baby Loves Me,” which positioned her as one of country music’s most empowering artists. She joined the Grand Ole Opry in 1995. Over the next decade she notched five No. 1 hits: “Wild Angels,” “A Broken Wing,” “Wrong Again,” “I Love You,” and “Blessed.” Dramatic music videos such as “Independence Day” and “Concrete Angel” brought her most cinematic songs to life, while in the recording studio she developed her ability as a producer. Known for her work with the YWCA and abused women, McBride received the 2003 ACM Humanitarian Award. She connected with her core country music audience on 2011’s “I’m Gonna Love You Through It,” which became an anthem for women and their families facing breast cancer. In addition to her performing career, McBride has authored two cookbooks and stars in the Food Network series, Martina’s Table.

Past recipients of the ACM Cliffie Icon Award include Alabama, Bob Beckham, Garth Brooks, Glen Campbell, Johnny Cash, Charlie Daniels, Larry Gatlin & The Gatlin Brothers, Crystal Gayle, Merle Haggard, Emmylou Harris, Alan Jackson, George Jones, The Judds,  Brenda Lee, Loretta Lynn, Willie Nelson, The Oak Ridge Boys, Dolly Parton, Charley Pride, Jerry Reed, Tex Ritter, Marty Robbins, Kenny Rogers, Billy Sherrill, Ricky Skaggs, The Statler Brothers, George Strait, Mel Tillis, Randy Travis, Tanya Tucker, Conway Twitty, Porter Wagoner, Keith Whitley, Hank Williams, Hank Williams Jr., Bob Wills and Dwight Yoakam, among others.

ACM GARY HABER LIFTING LIVES AWARD – Gayle Holcomb was chosen to receive the Gary Haber Lifting Lives Award. This award is presented to a country music artist, duo/group or industry professional who is devoted to improving lives through the power of music, has a generosity of spirit, and is committed to serving others, voted on by the ACM Lifting Lives Board of Directors.

Gayle Holcomb, a Partner at WME and Director at Large on the ACM Board, has been a tireless advocate for ACM Lifting Lives, the Academy’s charitable arm. Holcomb helped launch ACM Lifting Lives in 2009, guiding the vision for the charity in its early stages, then continued her support by serving as chairman. Holcomb made the initial endowment to form ACM Lifting Lives’ Diane Holcomb Emergency Relief Fund, in honor of her late mother. The gift enabled the fund to respond quickly to unforeseen, immediate financial needs of ACM members, staff and members of the country music community. Holcomb remains actively involved in the fund’s charitable events, such as the ACM Lifting Lives Golf Classic at TPC, Bash at the Beach, and Topgolf Tee Off. Holcomb, the former Academy of Country Music board chairman, is also the recipient of the 2011 ACM Mae Boren Axton Award and the 2007 ACM Crystal Milestone Award. During her tenure as chairman, Holcomb was a driving force for the organization’s rapid change and growth, including moving the awards show from Los Angeles to Las Vegas. In 2015, she was inducted into the SOURCE Hall of Fame, which recognizes women’s contributions to the country music industry.

Past recipients of the ACM Gary Haber Lifting Lives Award include Dolly Parton, Darius Rucker and Carrie Underwood.

ACM GENE WEED MILESTONE AWARD – Miranda Lambert was chosen as the recipient of the Gene Weed Milestone Award. This award is presented to a country music artist, duo/group or industry leader for a specific, unprecedented or outstanding achievement in the field of country music during the preceding calendar year.
Miranda Lambert made history at the 2018 ACM Awards, becoming the all-time most awarded artist in Academy history with her wins for “Tin Man” as Song of the Year and her ninth consecutive Female Vocalist trophy. She currently has received 32 ACM awards including five Album of the Year awards 10 Song and Single of the Year awards (as either an artist or songwriter) and the first-ever ACM Merle Haggard Spirit Award. Meanwhile, Lambert and her friends Ashley Monroe and Angaleena Presley resurrected the Pistol Annies in 2018 with Interstate Gospel, a captivating collection that followed Lambert’s acclaimed solo release, The Weight of These Wings. Highlighted by singles like “Vice” and “Tin Man,” that platinum project won an ACM award for Album of the Year – the fifth time she’s won in that category. The Lindale, Texas, native has acquired ACM trophies for hits like “Smokin’ and Drinkin’,” “Automatic,” “Mama’s Broken Heart,” “We Were Us,” “Over,” “Over You,” “The House That Built Me” and “White Liar.” Since winning the 2006 New Female Vocalist award, Lambert has forged her own career path – prompting her to receive the first-ever ACM Merle Haggard Spirit Award in 2016. She supports the next generation of women creators through a songwriting scholarship at Belmont University while continuing to raise awareness for shelter dogs through her MuttNation Foundation.

 Past recipients of the Gene Weed Milestone Award include Jason Aldean, Kelsea Ballerini, Garth Brooks, Luke Bryan, George Burns, Kenny Chesney, Jeff Foxworthy, Merle Haggard, Gayle Holcomb, Sam Hunt, Loretta Lynn, Little Big Town, Willie Nelson, Jennifer Nettles, Blake Shelton, George Strait, Taylor Swift, and Carrie Underwood.
ACM JIM REEVES INTERNATIONAL AWARD – Kacey Musgraves was chosen to receive the Jim Reeves International Award, which is presented to an artist or industry leader for outstanding contributions to the acceptance of country music throughout the world. 

Kacey Musgraves borrowed one of her song titles for the aptly-named Oh, What a World: Tour, which led her around the globe in 2018. In addition to being the first country artist to
play the Fuji Rock Festival in Japan, Musgraves charmed audiences in Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and Ireland. Those international dates led to multiple shows across the United States and Canada. Musgraves headlined the C2C: Country to Country festival in early 2018, then returned in the fall to perform at Wembley Arena in London. Musgraves collected her first ACM Female Vocalist of the Year award in April. She also received Album of the Year honors for the critically acclaimed Golden Hour. That accomplishment marks her second win in that category, following 2013’s Same Trailer Different Park. She served as co-producer on both albums. Golden Hour debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s country albums chart, while Apple Music named it the Global Album of the Year in 2018. In February, Golden Hour won the Grammy for Album of the Year and Country Album of the Year.

ACM Poet’s Award – Rodney Crowell, Kye Fleming and Billy Joe Shaver were chosen to receive the Poet’s Award. This award is presented to a country music songwriter for outstanding and longstanding musical and/or lyrical contributions throughout their career, with special consideration given to a song or songs’ impact on the culture of country music.
Rodney Crowell has written for many of country music’s most prominent artists since the 1970s. A Houston native, Crowell landed his first cut with Jerry Reed after the country star signed him to a publishing deal in 1972. Emmylou Harris then hired him for her Hot Band and frequently recorded his songs, introducing his prodigious talent to her fans and other country artists. Crowell’s catalog grew to include #1 singles like “I Couldn’t Leave You If I Tried” and “She’s Crazy for Leavin’,”  as well as Rosanne Cash’s “I Don’t Know Why You Don’t Want Me,” Crystal Gayle’s “Til I Gain Control Again,” Highway 101’s “Somewhere Tonight,” Waylon Jennings’ “I Ain’t Livin’ Long Like This,” Tim McGraw’s “Please Remember Me,” Nitty Gritty Dirt Band’s “Long Hard Road (The Sharecropper’s Dream),” the Oak Ridge Boys’ “Leaving Louisiana in the Broad Daylight,” Bob Seger’s “Shame on the Moon” and Keith Urban’s “Making Memories of Us.” As a recording artist, Crowell was named ACM Top New Male Vocalist for 1988. He received a Grammy for Best Country Song and an ACM Song of the Year nomination for “After All This Time.” He was inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2003.

Kye Fleming’s songwriting helped define an era of country music through radio-friendly material recorded by Barbara Mandrell, Ronnie Milsap, and Sylvia, among many others artists of the 1970s and 1980s.

 Fleming grew up in a Navy family and toured as a folk artist before turning to professional songwriting. 
Following a move to Nashville in 1977, she teamed up with songwriter Dennis Morgan for major cuts like Mandrell’s "I Was Country When Country Wasn't Cool," “In Times Like These,” "Sleeping Single in a Double Bed" and “Years,” as well as Milsap’s “Smoky Mountain Rain” and “I Wouldn’t Have Missed It for the World.” Morgan and Fleming also co-wrote Sylvia’s No. 1 hit, “Nobody,” which received an ACM nomination for Song of the Year. 

 Fleming earned multiple Songwriter of the Year distinctions from BMI (1981-1983) and NSAI (1981-1982). She continued to land singles like Amy Grant’s “What About the Love,” Michael Johnson’s “Give Me Wings,” Willie Nelson’s “There You Are,” Charley Pride’s “Roll on Mississippi” and Steve Wariner’s “All Roads Lead to You.” She was inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2009 and participated in the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum’s Poets & Prophets series in 2012.


 Billy Joe Shaver has embodied the Outlaw spirit of country music from the start, placing cuts in the 1970s with Johnny Cash, David Allan Coe, Tom T. Hall, Waylon Jennings, Kris Kristofferson, and more. After a hardscrabble youth, which can be traced through many of his most eloquent songs, Shaver met Jennings at a guitar pull in Texas. Encouraged by the legendary singer, Shaver tracked Jennings down in Nashville to pitch some songs. True to his word, Jennings took a break from his recording session and listened to Shaver sing the material -- and subsequently recorded an album almost entirely composed of Shaver’s songs, 1973’s Honky Tonk Heroes. That breakthrough paved the way for hits like John Anderson’s “I’m Just an Old Chunk of Coal” and Johnny Rodriguez’s “I Couldn’t Be Me Without You.” Shaver has maintained a touring and recording career for decades, performing enduring originals like "Black Rose," "Georgia on a Fast Train," "Live Forever," and "Old Five and Dimers Like Me." Other notable cuts include Bobby Bare’s “Ride Me Down Easy,” Patty Loveless’ “When the Fallen Angels Fly,” and Elvis Presley’s “You Asked Me To.” He was inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2004.

 Previous recipients of the ACM Poet’s Award include Bill Anderson, Matraca Berg, Bobby Braddock, Felice and Boudleaux Bryant, Guy Clark, Jack Clement, Hank Cochran, Dean Dillon, Merle Haggard, Tom T. Hall, Harlan Howard, Toby Keith, Kris Kristofferson, Bob McDill, Roger Miller, Willie Nelson, Buck Owens, Eddie Rabbitt, Fred Rose, Shel Silverstein, Don Schlitz, Cindy Walker, Jimmy Webb, Hank Williams and Norro Wilson.
Tex Ritter FILM Award – A Star Is Born was chosen as the recipient of the Tex Ritter Film Award. This award recognizes an outstanding television movie, series or feature film released during the preceding calendar year which prominently features country music.

The authenticity of A Star Is Born resonated with the music community with its dazzling original songs, whether performed for thousands of screaming fans on screen, or simply between lead actors Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga. Cooper, who directed the film, and Gaga, who won an Oscar and a Golden Globe award for co-writing “Shallow,” both turned to Nashville songwriters to convey the characters of troubled rock singer Jackson Maine and budding songwriter Ally. Early in the film’s development, Cooper contacted producer Dave Cobb to help create Maine’s edgy, yet earthy, sound. Cobb introduced him to music by Jason Isbell, who crafted the song “Maybe It’s Time” after conversations with Cooper about the character’s struggles with redemption. In addition, Gaga co-wrote “Always Remember Me This Way” with Natalie Hemby, Hillary Lindsey, and Lori McKenna, while “I’ll Never Love Again” is a collaboration with Gaga, Hemby, Lindsey, and Aaron Raitiere. Among other songwriters on the soundtrack with country music connections, Paul Kennerly composed “Diggin’ My Grave,” Lukas Nelson served as a songwriter, music producer, consultant and performer, and Diane Warren (“How Do I Live”) contributed to the track “Why Did You Do That?” A Star Is Born received eight Oscar nominations.

Past recipients of the Tex Ritter Film Award include Beer For My Horses, The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas, Country Strong, Crazy Heart, Dolly Parton’s Coat of Many Colors, Nashville, O Brother, Where Art Thou, Sweet Dreams and Walk the Line, among others.

ACM SONGWRITER OF THE YEAR AWARD – Previously announced winner Shane McAnally has been chosen as the recipient of the Songwriter of the Year Award. This award is presented to an individual known predominately as a songwriter, selected by a Professional Panel of judges composed of songwriters, publishers, producers, and performing rights organization representatives.  This is McAnally’s second ACM Songwriter of the Year award.

Shane McAnally - With 40 No. 1 songs and three Grammy awards under his belt, Shane McAnally is well established as one of the top songwriters in Nashville. Throughout his career, McAnally has won dozens of awards and accolades including three ACM awards and a CMA award. His compositions have been recorded by Kenny Chesney, Kelly Clarkson, Luke Bryan, Keith Urban, Miranda Lambert Old Dominion and countless more. The Academy of Country Music named him Songwriter of the Year in 2014; that same year, he won two Grammys in the Best Country Album and Best Country Song categories for his work on Kacey Musgraves’s debut Same Trailer Different Park. He was named Billboard’s Hot Country Songwriter of the Year in 2015.

In 2017, Sam Hunt’s “Body Like A Back Road,” which McAnally co-wrote, broke records by spending 34 straight weeks at No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart; it was subsequently named the Song of the Year at the CMT Artist of the Year Awards. In 2018, he contributed several songs to Musgraves’s Golden Hour, which won the Grammy for Album of the Year, including “Space Cowboy,” winner for Best Country Song. As a producer, McAnally has helped shape the sound of albums by Hunt, Musgraves, Midland, Old Dominion, and more.

After founding a music publishing company, relaunching an iconic record label and creating an acclaimed stage musical, McAnally is expanding his reach to television as a coach on the new NBC show Songland, a role that he describes as “my wildest dream job that I never knew I wanted.”

Past recipients of the ACM Songwriter of the Year Award include Ross Copperman, Dallas Davidson, Luke Laird, Shane McAnally, Lori McKenna and Roger Miller.

3 years ago, I would sing this same song almost every night for $20 across the alleyway at Tootsies Orchid Lounge for whoever would listen. Tonight, I got to walk across that alleyway and into the backstage entrance of The Ryman to honor the woman who brought this song to life. Martina McBride you are such an inspiration to so many young artists who would not be who they are if it were not for artists like you, who took chances on songs and stories that no one else could do justice. You made the world stop and listen. To honor you tonight was sincerely one of the biggest honors of my life.
