The show took place Tuesday night, Oct. 9, at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles with Brown taking home trophies for Favorite Male Artist – Country, Favorite Album – Country and Favorite Song – Country.
In the Favorite Male Artist – Country category, Brown beat out country megastars Luke Bryan and Thomas Rhett thanks to fan votes. After hearing his name announced by Single Parents stars Leighton Meester and Taran Killam, Brown embraced Rhett and made his way to the stage to accept the honor.

Thanks to my manager Martha, my team, my band, Sony, Universal publishing and thanks to everybody who helped me with this. My family. I love everybody. Thank you guys so much.”
