So Many Grammy noms for some of the coolest ladies!

I am super stoked that the folks at the Grammys are noticing and celebrating some of the coolest ladies in country and americana music right now!

Yola, Brandi Carlile, and Tanya Tucker are all up for some pretty serious Grammys in 2020, and they deserve it! If you haven’t given any of their stuff a listen — do it!

I’m especially partial to this new Tanya album because upcoming #MTTM guest Shooter Jennings co-produced it with Brandi C! Listen below! <3

GRAMMY Award-winning singer, songwriter and performer Brandi Carlile is nominated for three awards at the 62nd Annual GRAMMY Awards: Song of the Year (“Bring My Flowers Now” performed by Tanya Tucker), Best Country Song (“Bring My Flowers Now” performed by Tanya Tucker) and Best Country Duo/Group Performance (“Common” performed with Maren Morris). “Bring My Flowers Now” was written by Carlile, Tucker and Carlile’s longtime collaborators and bandmates Tim and Phil Hanseroth and is from Tucker’s acclaimed new album While I’m Livin’—co-produced by Carlile and Shooter Jennings—which is also nominated for Best Country Album.

Queen of country-soul Yola today received four nominations at the 62nd Grammy Awards including Best New Artist and three nominations in the Roots category including Best American Roots Song, Best American Roots Performance (for “Faraway Look”) and Best Americana Album for her debut Dan Auerbach-produced album, Walk Through Fire. Auerbach also received a nomination for for Producer Of The Year for his work on albums including Walk Through Fire. The 62nd Annual GRAMMY Awards will take place in Los Angeles on Sunday, January 26, 2020, at the STAPLES Center in Los Angeles.

Yola stated, “To be nominated for four awards in the 10th month of my debut year is beyond a dream come true. Thank you to my incredible team and everyone who has supported and believed in me along the way. Great to see such incredible talent nominated alongside me. I’m truly honoured to be in the category with every artist nominated - see you in January!

The album, which was released in February 2019 to tremendous critical acclaim received support from tastemakers from the New York Times to NPR, which stated the record was “the work of an artist sure to stun audiences for years to come.” Variety called the album, “One of 2019’s Best Musical Breakouts,” while Rolling Stone called Yola “an artist you need to know” and “the voice of 2019.”
