Yung's father, and a member of her band Murray Yung is up for Bass Player of the Year. This is not Yung's first time to be nominated, but she said she remains excited every year. "I don't think they will ever lose their importance," she said. "It's an honour to be nominated as I know there are so many other talented people in this province, and not everyone gets to be in the top-five. "So I am truly grateful for everyone who decided to put that check mark beside my name. "I still get nervous before the nominations come out because everyone just keeps getting better and better and one day my name may not be there anymore.
