Trace Adkins and Kristin Chenoweth will be handling hosting duties once again at the American Country Awards. Airing on Fox in December, the 2012 event reunites the hosting team for what’s promising to be another big night of Country entertainment.
 
The ACAs set themselves apart from other Country award shows by recognizing achievements in categories outside the norm. The show will take place at the Mandalay Bay in Vegas.
 
“The ACAs honor the best and brightest of country music, from the hotshot breakthrough artists to the icons,” said Adkins. “I’m looking forward to cutting loose again with Kristin, who’s quite the firecracker comedienne, while we also take viewers through an evening of great music and awards.”
 
“I’m excited to return to the ACA stage with Trace and his big personality and even bigger boots,” added Chenoweth. “We had a blast last year and I plan to pull out all the stops to make sure everyone has a good time!”
 
The 2011 American Country Awards included performances by Alabama, Eli Young Band, Toby Keith, Pistol Annies, Blake Shelton, The Band Perry, Thompson Square and Chris Young. This year’s nominees and performers are expected to be announced soon.
