The Oak Ridge Boys have been named the official leading singers of America’s National Anthem by the National Music Council. The announcement was made last night at the Grand Ole Opry.
Oak Ridge Boys member Duane Allen describes the appointment as a reflection of the group’s patriotic pride. “Just reading the proclamation gives me chills. The National Music Council represents all of the major music organizations in America. The Oak Ridge Boys enjoy the privilege of leading in the singing of our National Anthem. We love to hear an entire football stadium singing it with gusto with us. Being designated is a huge honor, and we are humbled to be selected by the NMC.”
In a day and age where the National Anthem is being flubbed, forgotten, and ruined by artists taking liberty to change it up, it’s refreshing to have such country music legends be ambassadors to the world with this honor. Congratulations guys!
The Canadian CMA’s will be held on Sunday, September 9th, and some familiar names will be taking part of the show. Performers include Jason Aldean, Eric Church, Miranda Lambert, The Pistol Annies, as well as Canadian stars that have had varying levels of success in the United States such as Terri Clark, Paul Brandt, Dean Brody, George Canyon, as well as others that are big stars in Canada such as Johnny Reid, who leads the way with 8 nominations.
Terri Clark took to twitter to say, “Can’t wait to see you all at this year’s @CCMA Awards Sept 9th on @CBC! I’ll be performing! #countrynightincanada“
The full list of Nominees are supposed to be posted on the CCMA website according to their press release, but at this time, the full list has not been posted yet.
We do know that Terri Clark and Carolyn Dawn Johnson, both who are well-known names in American country music, have been nominated in the Female Artist of the Year category after Carolyn Dawn Johnson wrote on Facebook, “Just found out I am nominated for Female Vocalist of the Year at the Canadian Country Music Awards this year!!! Yay!!! Along with my friends Michelle Wright, Terri Clark, Victoria Banks & Tara Oram….this never gets old…thanks to all for the nominees:) “
Congrats to all the nominees, now if only we could get this show broadcasted in the USA!
