TORONTO – Dean Brody and Gord Bamford have reeled in a leading six nominations each for this year’s Canadian Country Music Association Awards.
Both men will vie for male artist of the year, fans’ choice, single of the year, songwriter of the year and video of the year.
Brody also earned consideration for album of the year, the category he won last year.
Brett Kissel of Flat Lake, Alta., and Dallas Smith of Langley, B.C., were close behind with four nominations apiece, including mutual nods for male artist and single of the year.
Three nominations each were doled out to Tim Hicks, High Valley and last year’s female artist of the year winner Jess Moskaluke. They will all compete for album of the year alongside Brody and Smith.
Jason Blaine also earned a trio of nominations.
The CCMAs will take place in Halifax on Sept. 13.
