OLD DOMINION: 2017 ACM Nominee, This Sunday

Old Dominion is returning to the ACM Awards as one of the nominees for Vocal Group Of The Year, after walking away with the award for New Vocal Group or Duo Of The Year at last year’s award show. Since then millions of fans have been introduced to Old Dominion’s sound. Brad from Old Dominion thinks he knows the “that sound” when he hears it right away…but band mate Trevor is not so sure it’s so evident at first. Either way, fans are loving the sound the guys in Old Dominion are coming up with! To see if Old Dominion’s sound helps them take home an ACM, tune in Sunday April 2nd when the 52nd Annual ACM Awards will be handed out in Las Vegas, live on CBS TV.

BRAD
: “It’s hard to pinpoint I think maybe if you’re outside of the group, but for us we just kind of know it. Just certain vibes, there’s a certain thing about the lyric that you know we just try to keep it as fresh as we can, and we’re always trying to do something a little bit outside so…I don’t know, you just kind of know.”
TREVOR: “I was gonna say we don’t really know”
BRAD: “Really?”
TREVOR: “Because I don’t think…”
BRAD: “Forget everything I just said”
TREVOR: (laugh) “For me, I don’t know…we work up a lot of songs, and we demo a lot of songs, we’ve even cut songs in the studio that we thought were going to be on the album, it’s sort of a moving target. But I mean, because we’re so many different things as a band. We have a sound, but we do a lot of different things…for me I don’t maybe, maybe you know but I don’t always know when it’s an Old Dominion song.”
BRAD: “Maybe I think I know when it is, and then whether we try it and it doesn’t work, maybe it wasn’t.”
