2009 AMA Ballot

Today, I cast my ballot for the 2009 Annual Americana Music Association Honors & Awards. Awards will be presented at the AMA's festival and conference on September 16-19, 2009 in Nashville.

Following are the final nominations placed on the ballot, along with my picks:

Album Of The Year

• Real Animal, by Alejandro Escovedo [My Pick]
• Written In Chalk, by Buddy & Julie Miller
• Jason Isbell & The 400 Unit, by Jason Isbell & The 400 Unit
• Midnight At The Movies, by Justin Townes Earle

Artist Of The Year

• Alejandro Escovedo [My Pick]
• Buddy Miller
• Justin Townes Earle
• Raul Malo

Instrumentalist Of The Year

• Buddy Miller [My Pick]
• Gurf Morlix
• Jerry Douglas
• Sam Bush

New & Emerging Artist

• Band Of Heathens
• Belleville Outfit
• Justin Townes Earle
• Sarah Borges [My Pick]

Song Of The Year

• "Chalk," written by Julie Miller, performed by Buddy Miller & Patty Griffin [My Pick]
• "Country Love" by The Gourds
• "Homeland Refugee," written by Joe Ely, Jimmie Dale Gilmore, and Butch Hancock, performed by the Flatlanders
• "Rattlin' Bones," written by Kasey Chambers & Shane Nicholson, performed by Kasey Chambers & Shane Nicholson

In a prior post, I identified the nominations that I submitted, which included Alejandro Escovedo for top album and artist. I can't really argue with the top instrumentalists on the ballot, but my top nomination was Jerry Miller of the Eilen Jewell band. For "new and emerging artist", I tried to limit my nominations to artists releasing debut albums, which naturally excluded everyone that made the final ballot. (I suppose I struggled with the definition of "new and emerging.") That said, Belleville Outfit and Justin Townes Earle released excellent "sophomore" albums, so I'm glad to see them on the ballot. However, I'm a huge fan of Sarah Borges (and her band, The Broken Singles), who recently released her third album, so I cast my vote for Sarah. Finally, "Chalk", which appears on the new Buddy & Julie Miller album, was included in my nominations and is definitely worthy of my vote on the final ballot for "song of the year".

I confess that the due date slipped up on me and, thus, I only had about 30 minutes to ponder these selections yesterday. I began by combing through my "Best Of" lists for 2008 (see prior blogs), eliminating those albums that were released prior to June 1, 2008. Then, I considered some of my favorite releases thus far in 2009, pretty much off the top of my head. Some of the notable 2009 releases include Eilen Jewell's Sea Of Tears, Buddy & Julie Miller's Written In Chalk, The Gourds' Haymaker!, Neko Case's Middle Cyclone, JJ Cale's Roll On, along with new stuff by John Doe, Terry Adams (of NRBQ fame), Booker T., and The Felice Brothers.
