Big winner: Taylor Swift scooped three gongs at the Country Music Association Awards on Wednesday

It is one of the biggest nights of the year for country music.
And the genre’s most famous names and rising stars joined forces for the Country Music Association Awards in Nashville, Tennessee on Wednesday.
While some dispute whether or not her music is really country, that didn’t stop Taylor Swift from being a big winner at the ceremony.

Emotional: Taylor was reduced to tears when she was presented with the special Pinnacle Award

Taylor was nominated for six gongs and presented with three early awards, before the live TV show.
These included Video Of The Year and Musical Event Of The Year for Highway Don't Care, a collaboration with Tim McGraw and Keith Urban.
The 23-year-old also collected the Pinnacle Award, which recognises an artist who has garnered worldwide success thanks to concert performances and record sales.

Congratulations: Faith Hill hugged the 23-year-old while (L-R) Jay DeMarcus, Gary LeVox, and Joe Don Rooney of Rascal Flatts and Tim McGraw applauded her

A dream team: Taylor teamed up with Alison Krauss (second left) and Vince Gill (centre), and the group performed with (L-R) Ed Darken, Sam Bush and Edgar Myer

Putting an interesting spin on it: The group performed an acoustic rendition of Taylor's song Red
