CMA Awards and Mac McAnally

[palmettopirate]

Well Mac won his 8th CMA Musician of the Year award last night. This one is his 7th consecutive, every one since 2008. This is a record in the category.

I think I'm wrong on the number. The article below threw me off.

"Now, Wednesday night (Nov. 5) on the televised 48th annual CMA Awards, you'll have another chance to see McAnally - and you could watch him make history. The multi-talented performer has already won seven CMA Musician of the Year awards - six in a row - and he's once again nominated in the same category."

Apologies.

Just call it Lucky No. 7.

Alabama native Mac McAnally has won the 2014 CMA Award for Musician of the Year, continuing his streak in this category.

McAnally -- a guitarist, songwriter, singer and producer -- has won this award six times previously, 2008-2013. He faced some tough competition this year, besting fellow nominees Sam Bush, Jerry Douglas, Dan Huff and Paul Franklin.

McAnally, 57, was born in Red Bay and grew up in Belmont, Miss. He maintains strong ties to Alabama, and has a home and studio in Sheffield.

He's a solo artist with a 12-album catalog, a go-to songwriter for many country artists and a longtime member of Jimmy Buffett's band, the Coral Reefers.

Thx for helping clear that up. That other article was partly bogus for sure.
