CRS In Action: Blake Shelton Receives Artist Humanitarian Award

CRS 2019

WARNER MUSIC NASHVILLE hosted its first-ever “WARNER MUSIC NASHVILLE LUNCHEON” at the OMNI HOTEL in NASHVILLE as part of COUNTRY RADIO SEMINAR (CRS) 2019. The performance lineup included MORGAN EVANS, COLE SWINDELL, DEVIN DAWSON, CHRIS JANSON, CODY JOHNSON, ASHLEY MCBRYDE, DAN + SHAY, and BLAKE SHELTON, who received the 2019 ARTIST HUMANITARIAN AWARD (NET NEWS 1/14). 

Standout moments included previous ARTIST HUMANITARIAN AWARD RECIPIENT DIERKS BENTLEY joking, “When you start getting old, you start to get things like the HUMANITARIAN AWARD.”  JOHNSON and MCBRYDE received standing ovations for their performances.

“I think the cool thing about Country artists is that I felt like we all step up anytime we get a chance,” said SHELTON. “We have the easy part; we get to make music and somehow that generates awareness for certain things, it generates money for things, and I don’t think any of us don’t step up any time we get a chance.”
