Sam Hunt at the AMA’s
If you missed the American Music Awards, you missed how Nashville was represented. From Carrie Underwood on the red carpet in her nude colored cape dress to Luke Bryan performing with Karen Fairchild from Little Big Town to Florida Georgia Line winning Country Duo of the Year, the standout moment not to be missed was when Sam Hunt won the AMA for “New Artist of the Year.” Among all genres, country music prevailed. It’s the first time a country music artist has won in that category since 2009. Hunt said, “It means a lot to me. I’m proud to represent country music tonight. To all my people back in Nashville that have been with me since the start – you put your faith in me and you were down with me for the long haul. We’ll see you guys back in Nashville.”

Underwood writes on her Instagram “Sometimes we just have to make it work.” Underwood goes on to say “when your post workout stretch turns into a human jungle gym.”
