Would you believe….Mindy McCready?  No?   Taylor Swift?  That’s more like it.  the girl has received EIGHT Grammy nods, second only to Beyonce, who as Kanye West would like to remind us, made the “best video of all time.”  So with Beyonce and Taylor competing once again in the top categories, and Kanye also nominated for 6 awards, what’s going to happen if Taylor beats Beyonce again, or vice versa?  Will he be strapped to his seat?  Or maybe wearing a shock collar?

Other country artists who did well are Keith Urban, who got 4 noms, and George Strait, Lee Ann Womack, and Jamey Johnson.  Zac Brown Band did pretty well, with 3 noms and one in the general category of Best New Artist.  The show airs on CBS onthe 31st of January.   Click here for a full list of the country nominations.

We’re already pretty excited that Reba and George Strait are teaming up for a tour this Spring.  Butnow they’ve announced that Lee Ann Womack will join them for all of those dates….talk about a powerhouse trio!  It sure would be nice if they would stop by the Rose Garden!  Of course if they WERE coming, due to some strange rule, I could never officially announce a date until our station is given the OK, but that shouldn’t stop you from doing a little internet search and figuring it out for yourself!
