Jerrod Niemann Is Red-Hot as “Lover, Lover” Hitmaker Tallies First CMA Award Nod as New Artist of the Year!

Nashville, TN – Sea Gayle/Arista Nashville recording artist Jerrod Niemann earned his first Country Music Association award nomination this morning, with Niemann among the final CMA nominees for New Artist of the Year. 

Niemann’s career has exploded in 2010 with his chart-topping co-produced album, Judge Jerrod & The Hung Jury, debuting at #1 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart in its first week of release, as well as the recent #1 single success of “Lover, Lover,” now an RIAA-certified Gold Digital Single.

But amid the success and critical acclaim surrounding his music, Niemann admits that the CMA nomination caught him completely off-guard.  Jerrod says it’s “just an unbelievable feeling.  I got started as a songwriter, so I’ve been in the trenches a long time, and so for everybody to recognize that and give you a pat on the back and say thank you for hangin’ in there – although you had your puppies ran over a couple times,” he jokes, in reference to the career disappointments that ultimately helped inspire Judge Jerrod & The Hung Jury.  Jerrod says, “It’s a huge honor, and I’m very excited and thankful.”

In just a few days, fans can watch for Jerrod on the road with Gary Allan, together with Jerrod’s longtime buddy Randy Houser, on Allan’s “Get Off on the Pain Tour,” beginning September 9.

Catch all the excitement of The 44th Annual CMA Awards when the show airs live from Nashville on November 10, at 8 PM ET, on ABC Television.

ARRESTED now in Colorado...but what a story and week for 2 brothers and their stripper sister! Text messages and tweets by three fugitive siblings who shot at a police officer and robbed a bank reveal a dangerous mindset and a firm bond between the siblings, "We've certainly seen their mindset when... They shot at a law enforcement officer outside of Tampa Bay, Fla., and when they fired inside that bank in Valdosta, Ga.
