For perspective, previous recipients of this award, which recognizes exceptional talent, as well prominence, ingenuity and philanthropic efforts, include Nelson himself, Kenny Rogers and Johnny Cash.

“Dolly epitomizes the very definition of the Willie Nelson Lifetime Achievement Award,” said CMA CEO Sarah Trahern. “She is a trailblazer who continues to enchant and captivate fans around the world, from her latest No. 1 album, to her sold-out tour, and numerous television projects. She is a treasure and deserving of this industry acclaim for her undeniable contributions to the success of Country Music, today.”
