Old Dominion returns to tonight’s CMA Awards to vie for Vocal Group of the Year, an honour they’ve taken home for the past three consecutive years.<\/p>\n
Lead singer Matthew Ramsey said over the years, this award has taken on a different meaning.<\/p>\n
\u201cBack when we first got it, it was a surprise. And, you know, we had worked really hard and suddenly we found ourselves in this new category and of acceptance in the country music community. And now we\u2019ve won it a few times. And we\u2019re at that point, I feel like that it\u2019s turned into a surprise again, you know, like now we\u2019re just like, so grateful to have the lives and jobs that we have. Every time it comes around, it\u2019s just like the first time. We\u2019re just extra grateful.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
