The CCMA Generation Award highlights these few select internationally celebrated artists who push country music forward, introducing this genre of music to new audiences.

These artists have broken barriers in areas such as record sales, growth and expansion of new audiences, and creating increased awareness of country music across the globe. Most importantly, the CCMA Generation Award recipients will encompass the belief held by the CCMA that every artist has the ability to change the world through the power of song.<\/h5>\n<h5><\/h5>\n<p><!--more--><br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<h5><a href=\"https:\/\/soundcheck.ccma.org\/ccma-awards\/ccma-generation-award-nomination\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SUBMIT YOUR NOMINATION FORM HERE<\/a><\/h5>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n<!-- Our front-end template -->\n<section\n    id=\"long-text-block_aa12c67317bfac0cec6c532765ea3c73\" \n    class=\"long-text  py-44 lg:py-55 \"\n>\n    <div class=\"site-container\">\n        <h4>Rules and Regulations<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li>Only current CCMA Members can nominate individuals or an event for an Award of Achievement (see Nomination Process below for details).<\/li>\n<li>The individual(s) or key organizer(s) of an event being nominated do(es) NOT have to be a current CCMA Member(s).<\/li>\n<li>The individual(s) considered for the Gary Slaight Humanitarian Award and the Hank Smith Award of Excellence must be Canadian citizen(s) or be a permanent resident of Canada.<\/li>\n<li>The individual(s) considered for the Leonard T.
