“Country Music’s Party of the Year” may not take place until Sunday night (April 2), but Florida Georgia Line is already heading into the show a two-time winner.

The duo, who took the stage in Las Vegas Saturday night (April 1) to perform as part of ACM Party For A Cause: WME Bash at the Beach, were surprised when the Academy of Country Music presented them with trophies for wins in two categories: Single Record of the Year for “H.O.L.Y.” and Vocal Event of the Year for “May We All,” their collaboration with Tim McGraw.

After getting the good news, FGL’s Tyler Hubbard and Brian Kelley took to Instagram to share their gratitude writing, “Completely surprised tonight when we were stopped midshow and given two ACM awards for Vocal Event and Single of the Year. Amazing feeling, and even better to celebrate it with all of you in Vegas. Love y’all and thank you.”

The duo is slated to take the stage alongside the Backstreet Boys during the 52nd Academy of Country Music Awards, airing live from the new T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on Sunday, April 2 (live 8:00-11:00 PM, ET/delayed PT) on the CBS Television Network.
