Dan + Shay are back in the spotlight, celebrating yet another CMA nomination for Vocal Duo of the Year! This marks their twelfth nomination in the category, and they’ve previously clinched the award twice. Even with this impressive track record, the duo maintains their enthusiasm and gratitude, as Shay expressed how meaningful each recognition feels, even after a decade in the industry.
Taking a breather from touring has sparked a wave of creativity for Dan + Shay. They spent the past year crafting new music while navigating life changes, including a new addition to Shay’s family. Their time away from the road didn’t just keep fans guessing; it also allowed them to release a fresh holiday tune,“Long Live Christmas,”hinting there’s plenty more good music on the way.
And just when you thought the duo couldn’t get any more entertaining, they jokingly offered their services for a wedding performance should Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce decide on some live entertainment. With good humor, they’re embracing their achievements and the moments that lie ahead. Their excitement for the upcoming CMA Awards, with their wives by their sides, sets the stage for what’s bound to be a memorable night!
