If you missed it, late in the show yesterday the CMA nominations were announced. Morgan Wallen leads this year with seven, including Entertainer of the Year. Lainey Wilson, Luke Combs, Jelly Roll, and Chris Stapleton are also up for Entertainer of the Year.
Congratulations to Chris Young, he is celebrating his 14th career number as “Young Love & Saturday Nights” has topped the mediabase country chart. The song is the title track from his latest album
Shaboozey is breaking a record set by country queen Carrie Underwood nearly two decades ago. “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” is number one on the Billboard Country Airplay chart for the seventh week in a row. That means Shaboozey has been in the top spot longer than any other artist with their first charting track. The record was set by Underwood back in 2006.
A reminder, Luke Bryan drops his new album on the 27th of this month called ‘Mind Of A Country Boy’. It’s a follow up to Bryan’s 2020 ‘Born Here, Live Here, Die Here.’
Kane Brown is just one example of how country artists take the time to make an impression on the young fans who follow them. At a recent show in Denver, he brought a young man on stage who was holding a sign saying he was getting bullied for the color of his skin and all he wanted was a hug from Kane Brown, and Kane delivered in a big way.
