Alabama holds the overall American Music Awards record for most wins by a group.
The country band from Fort Payne, Alabama, became one of the dominant acts in country music during the 1980s and early 1990s. Their run of hit singles and albums translated into repeated AMAs recognition, especially in country group categories, where they built a remarkable winning streak.
Different reference sources sometimes publish different totals because they count competitive awards, special honors, or category histories differently. That numerical variation does not change the identity of the record-holder: Alabama is the group most consistently identified with the AMAs’ all-time group-wins record.
A common mix-up is confusing this overall record with a single-category record. Alabama also leads the Favorite Country Duo or Group category, but that is narrower than the question’s all-awards comparison. Other famous groups, including the Bee Gees, Linkin Park, and BTS, have major AMA histories, yet none surpasses Alabama’s overall total.
