Nashville’s Big Wins At The 2016 American Music Awards
The American Music Awards were held at Los Angeles’ last night (Nov. 20) with many Nashville wins to celebrate.
BMLG celebrated two wins with Tim McGraw and Florida Georgia Line for Favorite Song—Country (Lori McKenna‘s “Humble And Kind”) and Favorite Duo/Group—Country, respectively.
Though not in attendance, Carrie Underwood was selected as Favorite Female Artist—Country and Favorite Album—Country (Storyteller). Underwood was a nominee in the all-genre Artist of the Year category, which ultimately went to Ariana Grande for her own channel on SiriusXM in 2017.
Country artist Cam, nominee for favorite Female Artist—Country, was in attendance. She gave Nashville songwriter Hillary Lindsey a shoutout on Twitter during Lady Gaga‘s “Million Reasons” performance, a song which Lindsey co-penned and is featured on background vocals.
Blake Shelton was selected as Favorite Male Artist—Country.
Nominees were based on key fan interactions as reflected in Billboard, including album and digital song sales, radio airplay, streaming, social activity and touring. Winners were selected by fan voting.
