Country singer Jamey Johnson to play Greensburg's Palace Theatre
Grammy-nominated country singer/songwriter Jamey Johnson will play the The Palace Theatre in Greensburg on April 11.
With 11 Grammy nominations, Johnson is one of only a few people in the history of country music to win two Song of the Year Awards from both the Country Music Association and the Academy of Country Music, according to a tour release.
His two Song of the Year trophies from the CMA and ACM were for “Give It Away” and “In Color.” His 2008 album, “That Lonesome Song,” was certified platinum for 1 million in sales, and his 2010 double album, “The Guitar Song,” received a gold certification.
In 2012, the Alabama native released his fifth studio album, a tribute project to late songwriter Hank Cochran. The Grammy-nominated “Living for a Song: A Tribute to Hank Cochran,” paired him with Willie Nelson, Alison Krauss, Emmylou Harris, Ray Price, Elvis Costello, George Strait, Vince Gill and Merle Haggard.
In 2013, the Nashville Scene’s 13th annual Country Music Critics’ Poll named it the year’s best album.
