Country Music Association Awards: Season 2015, Episode 1

2015 - 1: The 49th Annual CMA Awards

The 49th Annual CMA Awards will take place Wednesday, November 4, live from Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, TN. The show will be broadcast live on the ABC Television Network from 8:00 p.m. – 11:00 p.m. ET. Returning as co-hosts for the eighth year in a row are country superstars Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley. (The latter ranked #13 on Forbes' 2015 Country Cash Kings list; Underwood, who took several months off this year to be with her 8-month-old son, finished just below the list's cutoff.) The hosts have garnered rave reviews from critics and fans alike in past years with their memorable monologues and original songs.
