Reigning Duo of the Year and Video of the Year winners, Brothers Osborne earned four nominations in three categories at this year’s ACM Awards, including a nod for Duo of the Year, which they’ve won three consecutive times.
The guys are thrilled just to be in the running with other such talented pairs. They’re nominated alongside Dan + Shay, Maddie & Tae, Florida Georgia Line and Locash.
“One of the things I love about the country music genre is that it’s a family,” says John Osborne. “We’re all really, really close. We’re all a bunch of misfits thrown together. We’re all a little different, but we love one another and respect one another, and I’m just honored for the both of us to be a part of this awesome family.”
TJ agrees. “I will say to add on that, it sounds cliché to say it’s an honor to be nominated, but it really is.”
The guys, who are making their way up the country charts with “I Don’t Remember Me [Before You],” are also nominated for Music Event of the Year for “Burning Man” with Dierks Bentley. Additionally, John and TJ are nominated twice in the Video of the Year category for songs “Shoot Me Straight” and “Burning Man.”
The 54th Academy of Country Music Awards will air live from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas April 7th at 8pm ET on CBS.
