Yeah they've got the industry mojo working for them too.

I also read where Eli Young Band is up for best new group or something like that.

Congrats to RRB and EYB on their nominations

[mwynn05]

Because they just had their first top 40 song on Billboard this past year...so by Nashville standards, that's "new" I guess.

i agree, their older album "levels" or something like that was a damn good album... i liked them until i saw them live, cant stand em ever since

bands don't pop up over night and become Nashville/ACM nominated big


in order to be "new" in Nashville means you have most likely put in years being a nobody

I liked that one but I like the current one too.

One thing about them live (at least when I've seen them) that I don't like is that the singer seems to kinda half-ass the lyrics at times.

I started to not like them when they redid When It Rains and made it sound terrible.

Their new album, jet black and jealous doesn't have the same EYB sound as Levels

True...there's definitely a studio polish that Levels didn't have.

They will be a whistle in the wind 10-15 years from now. Liked them when they first started now they try to put on a show instead of playing music

I still like traditional country even though They are now trying to be that
