October 13, 2011 – Platinum-selling country star Billy Currington has been nominated for two American Country Awards with his #1 hit single “Let Me Down Easy” for “Single of the Year” and “Single of the Year: Male.” The second annual American Country Awards will air live from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas Monday, December, 5th at 8:00pm EST on FOX. Starting today, fans can vote once each day for their favorite nominees at www.theacas.com. Voting is open until Friday, Nov. 11th.
“I loved this song the first time I heard it, and for it to go #1 and now be nominated for the ACA's is such a cool thing,” said Billy. “I really love that the fans are voting on these awards, that makes it really special. I'm so grateful to my friends Marty Dodson, Jennifer Hanson, and Mark Nesler who wrote “Let Me Down Easy” and to the fans that sing along to it every night.”
“Let Me Down Easy,” from Billy’s fourth studio album Enjoy Yourself, marked his fifth consecutive #1 single, and his seventh overall. The nominees for each award category have been determined by four media measurement companies: BigChampagne (record sales and media consumption); Great American Country (video airplay); Mediabase (radio airplay); and Pollstar (touring data).
