People’s Choice Country Awards Winners

Shania Twain hosted the “People’s Choice Country Awards,” which celebrated the year’s greatest accomplishments in music, honored industry luminaries, and featured magnetic performances. The show aired on NBC and Peacock on Thursday, Sept. 26 from the Grand Ole Opry House in Nashville.

Miranda Lambert received the Country Icon Award for her decades-long career, during which she’s built an authentic, female-forward brand of country that has shaped the industry. Parker McCollum, who collaborated with Lambert on her new song “Santa Fe,” presented her with the award, nodding to her incredible talent, longevity and influence. Lambert got the crowd on their feet as she performed a medley of her hits, including “Kerosene” and “Dammit Randy.” In her acceptance speech, she acknowledged that it’s been a lot of “years, beers, tears and Tito’s, if [she’s] being honest.”

After performing his hit song “Fiddle in the Band” earlier in the show, Kane Brown was honored with the Country Champion Award for his passion for service and groundbreaking contributions to the country music industry and beyond. Bailey Zimmerman, who joined Brown on his In The Air tour, presented the multi-platinum singer-songwriter with the award, noting that he “gives back not for headlines or pats on the back [but because he’s] always there doing the right thing.” Kane accepted the award, delivering an empowering message to the next generation.

The show also featured performances from country superstars Brad Paisley, Keith Urban, Kelsea Ballerini, Lady A, mgk, Parker McCollum and The War And Treaty.
