The Music Video of the Year award was originally presented at the 1985 Country Music Association Awards. The category honors excellence in country music videos that have been released during the eligibility years and is awarded to both the artist and the director.
Among artists, Brad Paisley holds the record for most wins in the category, with four, while two-time recipient Alan Jackson has a leading twelve nominations. The current holders of the award are Cody Johnson and Dustin Haney for the video to Johnson’s hit single “‘Til You Can’t”.
