The group took home three titles, which include New Artist of the Year, Song of the Year for their hit "If I Die Young" and Single of the Year again for the same song. The person who accepted the Song of the Year award for the group was Kimberly Perry.
"I truly believe that [the song] would've been written with or without me. It just always felt like a song that was meant to be here," Perry said.
The newlyweds, Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert, were both quite surprised to receive their awards at the CMA Awards 2011. Shelton received the Best Male Vocalist award, while Lambert bagged the Best Female Vocalist award.
