Lost Highway's Hayes Carll & Ryan Bingham Receive Top Nominations for the 2008 Americana Music Awards

Lost Highway recording artists Hayes Carll & Ryan Bingham received nominations in top categories for the 7th Annual Americana Music Association Honors & Awards. Carll received nominations for Album of the Year (Trouble In Mind) and Song of the Year for his tongue-in-cheek “She Left Me For Jesus”. Fellow Texas singer-songwriter, Ryan Bingham, received the nod for New/Emerging Artist of the Year for his acclaimed album, Mescalito.

Carll’s Trouble In Mind and Bingham’s Mescalito have received consistently high-praise in the press. Here’s what a few had to say:

Hayes Carll – Trouble In Mind

“The creator of one of the year’s best country albums thus far….”
- Ken Tucker, Entertainment Weekly

“…a familiar type-a mushmouthed drawler who’s smarter about the beat than his shambling ways would make your think and funnier than shit when he wants to be, which is often."
- Robert Christgau, Blender

Ryan Bingham – Mescalito

“…success in this genre means telling the story well. And Bingham does just that.”
- SPIN

“Anyone seeking to invent a modern-day Texas troubadour couldn’t do better than to replicate Ryan Bingham’s life story.”
- Washington Post

The Awards ceremony will be held in Nashville, TN on September 18 at the legendary Ryman Auditorium.
