Both Lady Antebellum’s Own the Night and Eric Church’s Chief will be vying for a Best Country Album at this year’s Grammy Awards, taking place this Sunday (February 13th).

Lady A have spent numerous weeks at the top of the country album chart with their latest release, Own the Night, which has already been certified platinum. The collection has also earned the trio two No. 1 songs — “Just a Kiss” and “We Owned the Night.”

Last year, Lady A OWNED the Grammy Awards taking home five grammophone awards. Their hit single, “Need You Now,” earned Record and Song of the Year, as well as Best Country Song and Best Country Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals. They also came home with Best Country Album honors for their previous album, Need You Now.

Eric earned his first Grammy nomination this year, thanks to his chart-topping album, Chief. “The Grammys are the Holy Grail for every recording artist,” says Eric. “The thing I’m most proud of is we were able to get the Grammy nomination without ever changing what we do. I didn’t change the music or change the path that I was on to try to win awards or get nominated for awards. We just kept doing what we do.”

Jason Aldean’s My Kinda Party, Blake Shelton’s Red River Blue, George Strait’s Here for a Good Time and Taylor Swift’s Speak Now are also up for Best Country Album.

Capitol Nashville’s Dierks Bentley, who released his latest album Home, and Lady Antebellum have been tapped as presenters on the show.

The 54th Annual Grammy Awards will air live February 12th beginning at 8pm ET on CBS.

AUDIO: Own The Night is the title of Lady Antebellum’s third album, and the band’s Hillary Scott explains what kind of statement she hopes the album makes.

HS: “Oh gosh. I mean, we hope that this album makes an honest statement and one of just truly enjoying your life, every moment in it, whether it’s a heartbreaking moment or a moment where you’re about to float off the ground you’re so head-over-heels for someone. It’s really embrace every single moment and choose to celebrate it.”

AUDIO: Eric Church talks about his very first Grammy nomination.

Eric Church (Grammy nod) OC: …going to the Grammys. :27

“The Grammys are the Holy Grail for every recording artist. The thing I’m most proud of is we were able to get the Grammy nomination without ever changing what we do. I didn’t change the music or change the path that I was on to try to win awards or get nominated for awards. We just kept doing what we do. You know, the places that the Chief record has taken us so far is unbelievable, and it’s been an unreal ride, and I’m very proud to have the Grammy nomination, and I look forward to going to the Grammys.”

Alan Jackson’s “So You Don’t Have to Love Me Anymore,” written by Jay Knowles and Adam Wright (Alan’s nephew), has been hitting the airwaves in a BIG way! The video for the single is also enjoying its share of success, as well. In fact, the clip was No. 4 OVERALL on iTunes last week. It ranked just behind Nicki Minaj and ahead of Chris Brown. The digital single will be available on February 14th (Valentine’s Day).

 While Alan didn’t write his latest single, he certainly has had his share of hit songs. He tells us there’s basically no formula to his songwriting, though. “I pretty much write what comes out at the time. I get ideas all throughout the year, you know,” says Alan. “It could be reflective, or it could be something situational that causes me to think about it, or it could be something goofy that’s on television or something…life always seems to bring something to write about.”

AUDIO: Alan Jackson says there’s no formula for writing songs.

AJ (song ideas) OC: …write about. :29

“I can’t say that I put that much thought into all of it. I don’t know why. I pretty much write what comes out at the time. I get ideas all throughout the year, you know. It could be reflective, or it could be something situational that causes me to think about it or it could be something goofy that’s on television or something. But you know, whatever, I just write down or jot down ideas and titles. Sometimes they come out as a song right away or sometimes they lay there for a while. But life always seems to bring something to write about.”

Darius Rucker is taking a break from the studio where he’s working on his next album to play a little golf…in Pebble Beach’s 3M Celebrity Challenge. The singer and comedian Bill Murray, who is also the defending pro-am champ, picked up a skin in the five-hole game to win $10,000 each for their respective charities.

ESPN broadcaster Chris Berman and actor Lucas Black were the big winners, capturing four skins and $40,000 apiece for their causes.

According to the San Jose Mercury News, playing alternate shot, Darius and Murray won the third hole with a birdie.

Clay Walker, George Lopez, Ray Romano, Chris O’Donnell, Huey Lewis, Michael Bolton and NFL quarterbacks Aaron Rodgers and Tony Romo (Dallas Cowboys) are also playing in the tournament.
