BMI Stars Shine at 36th CMA Awards
Some of BMI's top affiliates were honored at the 36th Annual CMA Awards, including Brooks & Dunn, who took home their 10th Vocal Duo of the Year trophy, and Martina McBride, who reclaimed the Female Vocalist title she won in 1999. The Horizon Award went to Rascal Flatts and Vocal Group of the Year to the Dixie Chicks, who won the prize in 2000 as well. Producer Keith Stegall was a double winner with Single ["Where Were You (When The World Stopped Turning)"] and Album (Drive) nods for his work with Alan Jackson*. WSM-AM DJ Eddie Stubbs was recognized as Large Market Broadcast Personality of the Year, and Union Station's Jerry Douglas was named Musician of the Year.
