Looking genuinely surprised as his name was called, he shared a quick moment with duet partner Avery Anna before heading to the stage. It’s especially sweet considering Avery just won ACM New Female Artist of the Year weeks prior. In his heartfelt speech, Sam credited veterans, his team, family, and fans — calling the moment “unreal” and thanking everyone who believed in him. The fan-voted award underscores his growing connection with listeners, and with Darius Rucker also honored, the AMAs proved once again it’s a night for both legends and rising stars. This win? A rocket launch for Barber’s future. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
