The 2019 CMA Awards nominees include some of the genre's biggest stars and rising artists.

Maren Morris and Brothers Osborne are among those with the most nominations in 2019. Morris leads the pack with six nods, followed by Brothers Osborne with four. Dierks Bentley, Eric Church, Luke Combs, Dan + Shay, Kacey Musgraves, Blake Shelton, Chris Stapleton and Carrie Underwood all scored three nominations apiece.

Underwood is among the nominees for Entertainer of the Year, breaking a streak of two years where no women were nominated in the night's biggest category.

Jimmie Allen and Ashley McBryde announced the initial nominees during a special appearance on Good Morning America on Wednesday. Wallen and Midland announced the rest of the nominees via a special live stream later in the morning, and they found themselves among the names they read.

The 2019 CMA Awards will take place on Nov. 13, with the live awards show airing at 8PM ET on ABC. Carrie Underwood is returning to host, but Brad Paisley is sitting it out in 2019, with Reba McEntire and Dolly Parton joining Underwood as special co-hosts this year.

CMA Awards nominees — and ultimately, the winners on Country Music's Biggest Night — are determined by more than 7,400 professional members of the Country Music Association.

No Brad? No Problem! Carrie's Got This!

Remember: The best way to watch the 2019 CMAs is on TV, with ToC on your phone!
