2018 GRAMMY Awards Nominees

Chris Stapleton leads the country nominations for the 60^th Annual Grammy Awards, with three nominations including, Best Country Solo Performance for ‘Either Way’, Best Country Song for ‘Broken Halos’ and Best Country Album for his critically acclaimed, From A Room: Vol. 1. He is the most nominated country artist this year alongside Little Big Town. The nominations follow Chris’ Country Music Association Awards win earlier this month where he collected awards for Male Vocalist Of The Year and Album Of The Year for ‘From A Room: Volume 1’. The news also follows the recent announcement that Chris Stapleton will join legends The Eagles on their tour next year, where he will join them for their show on 23 June in Arlington, TX at AT&T Stadium.

From A Room: Volume 2 released Friday, December 1 on Mercury Records Nashville/Decca available digitally and with exclusive limited-edition bundles.

Vanner Records/RCA Records Nashville and prior GRAMMY Award-winner Miranda Lambert receives TWO nominations for her critically lauded, current radio single, “Tin Man,” for the 60^th Annual GRAMMY Awards.
The emotionally raw song received nods for BEST COUNTRY SOLO PERFORMANCE, which applauds the vocal performance that Lambert delivers as well as BEST COUNTRY SONG, which highlights the songwriter which Lambert also touts along with co-writers Jack Ingram and Jon Randall.
With how special “Tin Man” is to Lambert it’s no surprise that the artist who is “at the top of her game” [Rolling Stone] penned and performed such a beautiful and raw song that has continued to stand on its own and now today both the artist and songwriter behind “Tin Man” be acknowledged by the GRAMMY Awards.

EMI Nashville’s Brothers Osborne received their third GRAMMY nomination in the Best Country Duo/Group Performance category this morning for their Top 10 rowdy hit “It Ain’t My Fault.” This nomination joins their previously nominated performances for their No.1 Platinum smash hit “Stay A Little Longer” as well as the nostalgic “21 Summer”. All three tracks are featured on their critically-acclaimed debut album Pawn Shop which was recently certified Gold by the RIAA.

Earlier this month, Brothers Osborne performed “It Ain’t My Fault” at the 51^st Annual CMA Awards (view HERE) where they maintained their reign as “Vocal Duo of the Year” for the second year in a row. They also took home the “Music Video of the Year” Award for “It Ain’t My Fault”. Following the broadcast, “It Ain’t My Fault” rose nearly 2200% and Pawn Shop increased over 1800% in overall sales.

Nominees in other related categories include: Brent Cobb's Shine On Rainy Day, Jason Isbell And The 400 Unit's The Nashville Sound, and The Mavericks' Brand New Day for Best Americana Album; Glen Campbell's "Arkansas Farmboy" and Alison Krauss' "I Never Cared For You" for Best American Roots Performance; and Rodney Crowell's "It Ain't Over Yet" (featuring Rosanne Cash & John Paul White) for Best American Roots Song.

The 60th GRAMMY Awards will take place at New York’s Madison Square Garden on Jan. 28, 2018, airing live on CBS from 7:30–11 p.m. ET/4:30–8 p.m. PT.
