CRB Announces ‘New Faces’ Nominees
• Country Radio Broadcasters (CRB) has released the slate of artists nominated for this year’s CRS New Faces of Country Music® Show voting.
The nominees for 2020 are: Ingrid Andress (Atlantic/WMN), Morgan Evans (Warner/WEA), Riley Green (BMLGR), HARDY (TVM/Big Loud), Ryan Hurd (RCA), Tyler Rich (Valory), Runaway June (Wheelhouse), Matt Stell (Wide Open/Records/GCE/Arista) and Mitchell Tenpenny (Columbia Nashville).
The New Faces of Country Music® Show is one of the most anticipated events at Country Radio Seminar. Five emerging artists who have achieved significant success at Country radio during the qualification period are selected each year to perform. The New Faces of Country Music® Show has played a pivotal role in the careers of almost every major Country star. The annual showcase was formed in 1970, and, if we did the mental math correctly, CRS 2020’s New Faces event will be the 50th Anniversary show!
Voting for the Class of 2020 opens on Nov. 18 at 10am CT and runs through 11:59pm CT on Friday, Nov. 22 at CountryRadioSeminar.com. The five acts that garner the most votes will perform at the show. The New Faces of Country Music® Show will be held during CRS 2020 at the Omni Nashville Hotel. The show is co-sponsored by the Academy of Country Music and St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Country Radio Seminar and Country Aircheck sponsor the evening’s awards. Sadly, dinner tickets for the 2020 New Faces of Country Music® Show are already sold out. CRS 2020 rolls Wednesday, Feb. 19 through Friday, Feb. 21 at the Omni Nashville Hotel. Registration is $649 and is available today at CountryRadioSeminar.com.
