NOMINEES
(ACMs)
The Academy of Country Music Awards nominations were announced on Wednesday, with Eric Church leading the pack for 2013.
His seven nominations top Hunter Hayes’ six, although Taylor Swift and Miranda Lambert aren’t far behind either with five nods apiece.
The winners will be revealed live at the April 7 awards show in Las Vegas, where Blake Shelton and Luke Bryan will host.
But if that’s too long to wait, the ACMs have whet fans appetites by already revealing the winners for three categories, who will now face off for Best New Artist.
