Hill and McGraw are among the genre's most nominated couples and “Speak to a Girl” marks the sixth time they’ve been nominated together for a CMA in the Vocal Event of the Year and Musical Event of the Year categories since 1997’s “It’s Your Love,” which they won.

The couple has 61 nominations combined, with McGraw winning 11 times, including the 2001 Entertainer of the Year. Hill has three victories.

Grammy Award-winning artist P!NK will make her CMA Awards debut and perform. She is Musical Event of the Year for her “Setting the World on Fire” duet with Kenny Chesney.
