Brothers Osborne Are the 2018 CMA Awards Vocal Duo of the Year
Way to go, Brothers Osborne! The pair just nabbed the title of CMA Vocal Duo of the Year for 2018. Nominations in the category also included Florida Georgia Line, Dan + Shay, , Maddie & Tae and Sugarland.
"I don't know why we keep winning this!" John Osborne said, while TJ Osborne drew laughs by quipping, "If we were in Florida, there would definitely be a recount."
In all seriousness, John Osborne then asked the crowd to "give some noise for Dan + Shay" and praised the great year that duo is having. Later, he praised the value of hard work and sticking with guitar, saying that working hard and being "diligent" can lead to success.
This was the third year in a row Brothers Osborne nabbed the Vocal Duo of the Year at the CMA Awards. They've had a busy 2018, however: In addition to releasing their own sophomore album, Port Saint Joe, the Brothers Osborne worked on a collaboration with Dierks Bentley, "Burning Man," which appears on Bentley's latest album, The Mountain.
The Osbornes were also on tour with Bentley over the summer, as part of his aptly named Mountain High Tour; the trek also included up-and-coming country act Lanco.
