“As we enter into a milestone year with the 60th ACM Awards on the horizon on May 8, 2025, this will be a year of reflection on the impact the Academy has made on our industry, and a year to look forward on what the next sixty years will look like for the Academy and Country Music,” said Damon Whiteside, CEO of the Academy of Country Music. “With the guidance of these leaders in our industry and on our board, I have no doubt that the ACM will have one of the most exciting, impactful, and successful years to date, and with this dedicated group of individuals, the sky is the limit.”
This year, 11 of the 13 qualifying professional categories were elected by the Academy’s membership. In addition to those elected, director-at-large positions have been appointed by the Chair, Vice-Chair, and Vice-President. Directors are elected from each category based on the number of members in that category. Each director serves a staggered two-year term.
