He's won CMA awards, ACM awards, been nominated for GRAMMYs, but Lee Brice is now up for an award that's a little rarer for a country singer - a daytime EMMY!
The country singer - along with co-writers Billy Montana and Adam Wood - has been nominated for a daytime Emmy for their original song, "Pocket Change," which was featured in the PBS Primetime series "American Anthems." The series honors everyday heroes who have overcome adversity and make lasting positive impacts in their communities. "Pocket Change" mirrors the story of Ashley Ruiz – a "hope dealer" featured in the series who pays for laundry services in low-income communities.
Lee was blown away by the nomination. "What can I say? I’m completely stunned. I never once thought I’d be an Emmy nominee! I had a great time working with 'American Anthems' and meeting such an inspiring person like Ashley really puts life and everything we take for granted into perspective. On behalf of myself, Billy and Adam, I just want to say thank you so much for this incredible recognition."
See the daytime Emmys as they're televised live June 16 on CBS and Paramount+.
