"Free" by the Zac Brown Band is nominated for two Grammy Awards: Best Country Song and Best Country Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals. Last year, the band won its first Grammy Award in the all-genre Best New Artist category. Only two other Country artists have been named Best New Artist: LeAnn Rimes in 1997 and Carrie Underwood in 2007. The Zac Brown Band picked up a total of four nominations this year, including Best Country Album for "You Get What You Give." They face tough competition in that category from Lady Antebellum, Jamey Johnson, Dierks Bentley, and Miranda Lambert.
