More winners at the 51st Annual Academy of Country Music Awards have been revealed. Little Big Town and Miranda Lambert were the next names receiving trophies during the event, which is ongoing from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.
The four-piece nabbed the Vocal Group of the Year Award and jokingly thanked Chris Stapleton "for not being a group" in their speech. Earlier that night, Little Big Town lost the Song of the Year prize to the 37-year-old singer.
Lambert, meanwhile, won the Female Vocalist of the Year Award over competitors like Carrie Underwood, Jana Kramer, Kacey Musgraves and Kelsea Ballerini. This is her 7th consecutive time to have been honored with the title. She gave a shout-out to Underwood, calling her the "perfect vocalist," and also encouraged rising female talent in her speech.
Later that night, Stapleton collected his fourth ACMs as he's named Male Vocalist of the Year. It's the same award vied by other nominees like Brett Eldredge, Dierks Bentley, Eric Church and Jason Aldean.
