The fans have spoken!

The 2012 American Country Awards have come and gone and the fans have crowned Country superstar Luke Bryan a nine-time ACA winner! The “Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye” singer took home every award he was nominated for, including the coveted Artist of the Year nod.

“Rarely am I rendered speechless, but I truly am,” Luke Bryan said backstage after the show. “I don’t know how to formulate a series of words that can truly tell how appreciative I am to the fans for voting and making a night like this possible… I always take fan voted awards and cherish them. They are dear to my heart.”
