Hey Romeo has been nominated for three ACMA awards. The awards ceremony is scheduled for Sunday, January 25,
at Westerner Park in Red Deer.
Hey Romeo is in the running for more awards, this time from the Association of Country Music In Alberta (ACMA).
Announced in December, Hey Romeo’s EP I Got This has been nominated for Album of the Year. They also have two in the running for Song of the Year with the singles Hello Patio and Won’t Be Over You. Rounding out the nominations is a vote for Group or Duo of the Year.
The band, featuring Rob Shapiro on keyboards, released its six-song EP I Got This in September. It is described as “a seamless blend of Country, pop and rock that reminds listeners that it’s often life’s simplest moments that are the most important.”
It was a busy year for the band. Along with this release, they shared the bill with legendary country artist Alan Jackson, Terri Clark and the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band.
They have also been busy working on the second part of their EP series, due out in 2015.
The ACMA Awards are to be presented at a ceremony on Sunday, January 25 at Westerner Park in Red Deer.
