The 9513’s 1st Annual Country Music Awards list Eleven Hundred Springs as a Nominee for Country Artist of the Year, Texas Artist of the Year, Group of the Year and Best Album Cover of the Year.

Between the CMAs, the ACMs, the Americana Music Association Awards, the International Bluegrass Music Association awards and the Folk Alliance Awards, there’s a lot of hardware being handed out to honor the best music from across the spectrum of musical styles which makes up what we here at The 9513 call country.

But none of the above bring all of those various styles together, under one big “country music” tent where they belong. That’s where we come in.

The CMAs and the ACMs are radio-based awards that honor only mainstream country, while the others exclude quality mainstream music and even quality traditional and neotraditional country.

We cover country music in all of its forms, so it only makes sense that we’ve designed awards that allow the best music from all corners of country to be honored side by side.  For the complete article, click here.

Texas Music Chart list Eleven Hundred Springs “Every Time I Get Close to You” in the top 20 of the Top 50 Songs of 2008.

For complete list click here!

For those who are as of yet unfamiliar, Eleven Hundred Springs is quite possibly, the finest country music band in the game today and their latest album, Country Jam, finds them operating expertly within a wide variety of country music styles–from honky tonk shuffles, to Waylon-esque Texas country rock, to Rockabilly and more–while always sounding both distinct and original.

The first single from the record, “Every Time I Get Close To You,” compares favorably to songs like Rodney Crowell’s “Ain’t Living Long Like This.” It’s an incredibly engaging number that will perennially satisfy honky tonk crowds as a part of any country band’s live set; its hook is simple, as is its idea, its riff and melody are catchy and its groove is a perfect one to dance the night away.  For more reviews by The 9513, click here.
