The band is honored as a nominee for:
Song of the Year: YES
Album of the Year: Family Album
Best Country Group: Family Reunion
Family Reunion's three nominations are the most for any artist nominated. But the story of how this band came to be is as impressive as their recent success.

To some, country music is all about harking back to a simpler age. But Family Reunion (https://www.familyreunioncountry.com/) is one band that is taking the most American of art forms into the 21st century.

Styling itself as the first 'virtual' country band, Family Reunion is made up of six anonymous members from across the country, joining up online to create music that both gives a nod to the genre's glorious past and looks to carve it a bright future.

The debut album 'Family Album' (https://www.cdbaby.com/cd/familyreunion) is a testament to how powerful the spirit of collaboration can be. There are influences on this record from as far afield as Texas, southern California and country's very own Mecca: Nashiville.

The six-strong group - all of whose members are talented musicians on their own rights - combines the styles they listened to and loved in their part of the country to make a unique 'musical gumbo' as they describe it.

This record has touches of the blues and of rock and of folk music, while still being firmly entrenched in the great, continuing tradition of country. The storytelling is as fresh and relevant as that of such greats as Johnny Cash or Emmylouu Harris, but it is shamelessly modern music at the same time.

That sound has already found an audience among country aficionados. The first two singles from the band were awarded platinum and gold awards by analysts at Uplaya, while both hit the top 30 on the European CMA chart. The worldwide appeal shows the power of the internet in promoting Family Reunion.

But this talented band would be nowhere without the essential element for all great musicians: Good tunes. And in the end, that's what Family Reunion is all about.
