CMA Recap and Special Behind the Scenes Moments

The CMA Awards looked different on TV last night, but they were able to have artists in the same building, and on stage…so that was something rare for 2020! There were face shields and masks. And there were artists at banquet tables. No fans, but that’s something we’ve had to get used to! Something new to the CMA stage…Justin Bieber made his debut! Eric Church snagged ‘Entertainer of the Year’ and Maren Morris scored ‘Female Vocalist of the Year’! To see the full list of winners, click here!

Taste of Country has some behind-the-scenes photos from the show! Artists catching up in between performances and awards presentations, hanging out backstage, and enjoying the night together. Click here for the behind the scenes photos! It almost looked somewhat “normal”. Somewhat. Hey, we got to see our favorite artists and listen to them perform! We’ll take it!
