Gabby Barrett has been announced as the ACM New Female Artist of the Year.
Gabby Barrett continues her meteoric rise, crowned as ACM New Female Artist of the Year – she received the news from ACM Awards host Keith Urban. “Ahhh ARE YOU KIDDING ME?? ACM New Female Artist of the Year!! This feels like a dream,” exclaims Barrett. “God is so good, and I’m really blessed to be a part of this Country music community. A million thank you’s to my husband, my family, my fans, my team for all of your support and to the ACMs for this incredible honor.”
The accolade adds to an already stellar week for Barrett, with her current single “The Good Ones” reigning #1 on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart. This marks the first time a female artist has sent her first two singles to #1 on the chart since 2012. The track is Top-5-and-climbing on the Country radio airplay charts, and has amassed 230 MILLION+ global streams.
Celebrating her New Female Artist of the Year win, Barrett will take the stage to perform at the 56th Academy of Country Music Awards airing Sunday, April 18 at 8:00 PM ET / 7:00 PM CT on CBS, and contend for Single of the Year with “I Hope.” Her latest project – seven-track Live From The GoldmineEP – is available now; stream it here.
