The 43rd annual Country Music Association awards took place this past week, and while there were no earthshaking, out-of-the-blue surprises, there were a couple worth noting (Darius Rucker, for instance, and neo-Outlaw Jamey Johnson). And with teenage superstar Taylor Swift sweeping multiple categories, including Entertainer of the Year, you could say country experienced a slight changing of the guard.
Below is a complete list of winners by category:
Entertainer of the Year: Taylor Swift
Single: "I Run to You," Lady Antebellum
Album: "Fearless," Taylor Swift
Song: "In Color," Jamey Johnson, Lee Thomas Miller, James Otto
