They performed together at the Grammy awards.
Now they’ll be going head to head for Entertainer of the Year honors at this year’s Academy of Country Music Awards.
The nomination list for 2017 is out. In addition to Carrie and Keith, those nominated for the night’s biggest award include Jason Aldean, Luke Bryan and Florida Georgia Line.
Aldean took the honors last year; Bryan won in 2013 and 2015.
Urban has never received the ACM Entertainer of the Year nod. Carrie is a two-time winner, in 2009 and 2010.
Singing show stars with nominations also include Lauren Alaina and Cassadee Pope.
Lauren, curiously, is nominated as top new female artist, though she released a debut album way back in 2011 after finishing second on Season 10 of American Idol.
Cassadee, Season 3 winner of The Voice, is nominated along with Chris Young for their “Think of You” duet, the same song that earned the duo a Grammy nomination.
Here’s the complete list of singing show nominees and the competition they’ll be up against at the ACM Awards, set for April 2 (on CBS).
