Summary: | While the veterans were victors at this year's awards, so, too, were fresh-faced, first-time winners Deana Carter, LeAnn Rimes, guitarist Brent Mason and husband-wife vocal team Tim McGraw and Faith Hill. It was his 10th career CMA award, moving Brooks into a second place tie with double-winner [George] Strait on the list of all-time CMA winners. They trail only the evening's host, Vince Gill, who has 17 but went away empty-handed this year. Earlier this week, both Brooks and manager Bob Doyle told the Nashville Banner they did not expect to win the award, feeling Garth [Brooks]'s long, dry spell might indicate that he has fallen out of favor with CMA voters. |
