Little Big Town Put ACM 'Puzzle' Pieces Together

Little Big Town are once again nominated for Top Vocal Group of the Year at this year's ACM Awards. The group took home Top New Vocal Group honors in 2006 and have been nominated in the Vocal Group category every year since. But they're particularly humbled by this year's nod, citing the category's drastic change in recent years.

"Look at it from when we were nominated the first time to what it is now," Karen tells The Boot. "There were some pretty big names left off that list this year, which was a shock to us, so we never take [it] for granted, because we weren't sure we would be on there. It's great for the bands like us and Rascal Flatts, who have been around for a while now, to know that we led the way a bit on this big group push that's happening now. It's great that we're seeing that [diversity] in the format. Some of the best music in the format is in that category -- the Zac Brown Band, Lady Antebellum -- it's really exciting, and I feel good that maybe we were a piece of that puzzle in the early days."
