 The nominations for the CMA Awards came out three days ago. The ceremony will take place on November 10th awarding the best country artists, singles and albums of the year (the eligibility period is from July 1,2020 to June 30, 2021). Let's get into the nominations: ENTERTAINER OF THE YEAR: This is the biggest award of the night. Eric Church and Chris Stapleton earn a nomination in this category. Both lead the nominations with five each.  Eric Church Luke Combs Miranda Lambert Chris Stapleton Carrie Underwood Church and Stapleton nominations seem reasonable. Both have released projects this year, which could be candidates to 'Album Of The Year'. Luke Combs gets a nomination too. He is one of the biggest country stars nowadays and he has had great chart success with 'Forever After All'.  The only nomination that is a little disappointing for me is Miranda Lambert's. Despite releasing The Marfa Tapes, she's been living by the success of 'Settling down'

  Morgan Wallen has released today his highly-anticipated album. The record, with 30 tracks, includes some of his hits, like ' 7 summers' or ' More Than My Hometown' . His new single, premiered yesterday with a live performance ,is 'Sand In My Boots' . It is the first song of the album and is one of the best. It addresses elements of country living  ( that will repeat along the record) in the background of a sweet  love story.  The project has got some songs that match the title and the subject of  it, the danger, like ' Warning' , ' Neon Eyes' or even  'Living The Dream'  . They pretend to feel dark and that is brought by some beats and a more close to rock sound, but it frecquently make the songs lose their country sound, with the exception of ' Outlaw ' (ft. Ben Burgess, who also is cowriter of some songs), with some word play ('It takes a hell of an angel'). The album succeeds in tender love songs like the mentioned
