Award-winning country & bluegrass group, The Kody Norris Show took bluegrass by storm with FOUR wins at this year’s SPBGMA Awards. In 2022, the band was named Entertainer of the Year and Mary Rachel Nalley-Norris won Fiddler of the Year. For this year’s honors, they won in all four nominated categories including:

• Entertainer of the Year / The Kody Norris Show

• Instrumental Group of the Year / The Kody Norris Show

• Guitar Performer of the Year / Kody Norris

• Fiddle Performer of the Year / Mary Rachel Nalley-Norris

“I have to say that Saturday night was an epic night for TKNS. Being seated in an Awards show ballroom surrounded by your peers, heroes, and fans is definitely exciting, to say the least. To even receive the nominations is so humbling as many of the finalists have been my heroes since I was a child. Seeing our name on the big screen with such noteworthy folks still just leaves me in awe,” shares Kody Norris.

“We were all in complete amazement each time the envelopes were opened to reveal we had won. Winning last year was really something but to win for a second time honestly left me speechless and in tears. I am so proud of my band and of Mary Rachel for all their hard work and dedication to help me consistently deliver a quality performance each and every time we hit the stage. Seeing them receive recognition like this would definitely put any boss man over the moon for his crew.”

“I honestly can not believe that I was blessed with the title of SPBGMA Fiddle Player of the Year once again,” shares Mary Rachel Nalley-Norris. “I love what I do, appreciate each and every one of you, and look forward to a great year on the road with my husband and best friends. I’m humbled and very honored! Thank you so much!”

The band recently released their newest single, “I Call Her Sunshine.”. Premiered digitally by Cowboys & Indians, “I Call Her Sunshine” is a true “love at first sight” tune that paints the picture of a lonesome traveler who meets the girl of his dreams and will spend the rest of his life trying to find her once again. As seen in the music video, the outcome has a happy ending, and with banjo ace Josiah Tyree taking the lead in a true, traditional bluegrass fashion, The Kody Norris Show proves once again why they are becoming a leading name in the bluegrass world. “I Call Her Sunshine” also made its television premiere with Heartland’s Country Music Today.
