For the first time in Grammy history, two country artists are nominated in the all-genre Best New Artist category. Best Country AlbumBrittany: Keith Urban - RipcordI think Ripcord is, hands down, the best album Keith has ever made. Best Country Solo PerformanceBrittany: Maren Morris - "My Church”This is another tough category that could easily go to any of the nominees. But, with four nominations this year, I think Maren Morris might pull off the upset over the genre veterans. Hugh: Maren Morris - "My Church”In my opinion, this award is between Maren Morris and Miranda Lambert, both of whom delivered incredible performances on their respective singles.
