Country music sure can’t claim a shortage of awards for their craft, whether it be awards shows or accolades doled out by critics. The well respected Nashville Scene Critic’s Poll was the latest of these pats on the back released to the public and Miranda Lambert is the most decorated country artist to come out of the poll.
Lambert was given four awards including Best Female Artist and Best Artist, while also receiving top honors in the Best Album category for her latest CD Crazy Ex-Girlfriend as well as Best Single for “Famous in a Small Town”. Other winners included Brad Paisley (Best Male Artist), Sugarland (Best Group), Keith Urban (Best Live Act), Taylor Swift (Best New Artist), and Emmylou Harris (Best Reissue).
The awards were voted on by almost 100 critics representing such publications as Billboard, Rolling Stone, The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Los Angeles Times, and Country Weekly.
