Brothers Osborne, known for their powerhouse musicianship and genre-bending sound, performed "Stay A Little Longer" to a packed room of peers and industry leaders. The song, a fan favorite and career-defining hit, has now surpassed three million certified units in the U.S.

"'Stay A Little Longer' has taken on a life of its own over the years," said TJ Osborne. "It's an incredible feeling to see it still resonate with people." John Osborne added, "Being recognized by the NMPA among so many of our songwriting heroes is something we'll never take for granted."

The star-studded evening also featured Maddie & Tae, who were honored and performed their 4x Platinum hit "Die From a Broken Heart." Dean Dillon received the prestigious Platinum Anthem Award for the year's highest-certified song-the 17x Platinum "Tennessee Whiskey"-presented by his daughter, Jessie Jo Dillon, followed by a moving tribute performance from ERNEST.
