There has been a TON of buzz around country music and its new artists, and I CANNOT be more proud! 1) Maren Morris - NOMINATED FOR 4 GRAMMYS. 2016's New artist of the year! Great writer and has a bomb album out!
2) Michael Ray - He is why I started this blog! Won a BMI this year, and was on tour with Brantley Gilbert! 3) Brothers Osborne - Won duo of the year! Awesome album out! 4) Jon Langston - He did some shows with Luke Bryan! His self-titled EP has peaked multiple times on the charts! 5) Old Dominion - Won ACM New Vocal Duo or Group of the Year and American Country Countdown's Breakthrough Group / Duo of the Year! Their first album just went gold! 6) Kasey Musgraves (When I first started writing this blog, I never considered Kasey an 'up and coming' artist becuase she has won GRAMMYS and other prestigious awards, but she does not get much air-play, which is dissapointing, so I have included her in this list because I love her music. She has also gained more attention this year!) 7) Trent Harmon - Won American Idol and has a new EP out now! 8) Chris Lane - Had his first single go #1! 9) Mikey Guyton - Nominated for New Female Vocalist of the Year at the ACM'S! 10) William Michael Morgan - His single Sam Hunt wrote called, "I Met A Girl" has peaked at number 2 on the charts! 11) Russell Dickerson - He's touring with Thomas Rhett soon! "Yours" is a HIT song for him! 12) Lindsay Ell - One of the Next Women of Country Music! 13) Lauren Alaina - Toured with Alan Jackson, now on tour with CMT'S Next Women of Country Music with Martina McBride! Her new EP is out now! 14) Chris Janson - "Buy Me A Boat" has gone Platinum! 15) Cassadee Pope - Won The Voice! Has won Breakthrough Video of the Year, and has a hit duet with Chris Young! What I have said about these artists don't even cover half of their acheivements! Go see them on tour if you can, and I hope you are already listening to their music!
