Last Friday (11/10) the 2024 Grammy Nominations were announced. Once again, the Grammy’s prove to be tone deaf when it comes to country music

Morgan Wallen is this year's leading Billboard Music Awards male finalist, and he was just announced as the latest performer on the 2023 awards show.

Friday (November 10) was a good day for songwriter Jessie Jo Dillon. The artist found out just earlier today that she had earned two new Grammy nominations (to go with three already in her back pocket), one for Songwriter of the Year, Non-Classical and one for Best Country Song.

Themes emerge quickly when you dig into the nominations for the 66th Grammy Awards. The major categories are dominated by women and seemingly up for grabs; elsewhere, progress is not always so clear.

Even with a huge sales/streaming year, songs and projects from Luke Combs, Morgan Wallen and more were absent in the Big Four categories.

The GRAMMYs announced its 2024 nominees on Friday, and Wallen was far from the only major snub.

“I can speak for everybody in saying we’ve all been through a breakup to where you didn’t want it to be over.”

As the hours count down to the 2023 CMA Awards, American Songwriter looked at the year of milestones for the Entertainer of the Year nominees.

“I know that I come from a place of small-town roots and of humble beginnings and I try to keep those things in my songs just stuff that I know people like me can relate to.”
