Parmalee

There's a lot more behind the glitz of award nominations, and Parmalee is shining a light on the unseen politics at play.

How's this for a snub: Last year's CMA Awards Entertainer of the Year favorite has been locked out of all the major categories this year like it's personal.

Here are the most outrageous snubs and biggest surprises from the 2025 ACM Awards nominations.

"But it was so hard for us to talk about over the years," Barry Knox shares.

Tickets to the show are sold out, but fans can still watch the show virtually through a Veeps livestream.

The most snubbed group at the 2024 CMAs is representative of a larger problem with this format of prize-giving.

Including the singer who never got justice.

Among the surprises: A first-time nominee who also notched an Entertainer of the Year nod! Among the snubs: One of country music's leading ladies.

The show airs Sunday, April 7 on CBS.

Parmalee's love songs have done well at country radio. Now, they're ready to take the next step forward.
