They include industry pioneer Chad Morgan OAM, Jean Stafford, Anne Kirkpatrick, Shaza Leigh, and multi-Golden Guitar award winners Rex Dallas, Lindsay Butler OAM, Lawrie Minson and Pixie Jenkins.

Dr Brendan Nelson AO, director of the Australian War Memorial, returns to the stage at the TRECC for the second year in a row.

Tamworth Country Music Festival co-founder Max Ellis, broadcaster Nick Erby, The Bushwackers frontman and CMAA president Dobe Newton, CMAA chairman Dan Biddle and vice chair Natalie Waller will also hand out the awards on the evening.

Toyota’s Wayne Gabriel will present the Toyota album of the year.

The awards are hosted by Adam Brand and Amber Lawrence, while red carpet hosts are the ABC’s Anna Moulder and 2018 Qantaslink new talent of the year winner Brad Butcher.

Tickets are available at www.tcmf.com.au.

The event is live streamed via ABC Landline’s Facebook page from 7.30 pm with comprehensive coverage to be broadcast on ABC Landline on Sunday, January 27.
