Oklahoma native Carrie Underwood, the reigning Academy of Country Music Entertainer of the Year, will be honored as recipient of the 2009 Harmony Award at the Ball Dec. 12 at Nashville’s Schermerhorn Symphony Center.
The Harmony Award is presented annually at Nashville’s Symphony Ball to individuals who have demonstrated continued interest and support of music in Nashville. The recipients exemplify the unique harmony between the many worlds of music that exist in that city and have contributed significantly to the development and appreciation of Nashville’s musical culture, according to a news release.
A four-time Grammy Award winner, Underwood is also the three-time, reigning ACM and Country Music Association Female Vocalist of the Year. Today, she releases a new album, “Play On,” on 19 Recordings/Arista Nashville with producer Mark Bright. He produced 2007’s hit-filled “Carnival Ride,” as well as seven tracks including four No. 1s from Underwood’s blockbuster 2005 debut, “Some Hearts.”
Earlier this year, the Checotah native became the first country artist in history to achieve 10 No. 1 singles from their first two albums when “I Told You So” became the fifth consecutive chart-topper from “Carnival Ride.” To date, she is the U.S. best-selling “American Idol” winner with album sales of more than 10 million.
